A few weeks ago, we celebrated Mother's Day!! The Saturday before Mother's Day, we enjoyed lunch with Neil's mom (and family) and then in the evening, we celebrated with my own mother (and family). How blessed we are to have our mothers so close to us. They are always willing to help us - clean, feed us a meal when hungry, watch kiddos, projects around the house, a phone call away when we need tips on cooking, parenting, gardening/landscaping, etc... I really don't know what we'd do without them. Love you, Mom, and love you, Jean!!!
On the morning of Mother's Day, we scooted out of the house and drove to a lovely
state park, recommended to us by a friend (who also has lots of littles). We had a blast!!! Not only were there awesome trails and places to splash in the water, but there was also a wonderful museum dedicated to the park. We all had a wonderful time and on our drive home, we decided last minute to
eat out (which we hardly ever do). It was the perfect ending to the perfect day! Thank you God for my wonderful children, whom I am blessed to mother!
Here are some pictures of our wonderful trip....
