Happy Mother's day

Hope everyone had a great day today. Mine sure was excellent. And why, you ask?

Because...

• Nate was home


• I got to sleep in


• I woke up to the smell of German Pancakes


• A very pretty bouquet of flowers awaited me this morning (picked out by Dylan, he says)


• I came home from church with one tomato plant (instead of a flower this year) because, as the councilor in the bishopric says, "It is the gift that keeps on giving". Get it? ...... It won't die like a flower.... it will keep giving tomatoes all summer. If only it will survive until I can plant it.


• Dinner was ready in the crock pot as we walked into the house from church, thanks to one wonderful husband.


• Enjoyed some wonderful cinnamon-roll cheese cake things. And then some ice cream a while later.


• Naps were had by all, except me. I got too involved in the movie we were watching (The Ultimate Gift). I learned a lot, however, and I think my mom wanted me to learn a lot too, since she gave it to me.


• Had some ice cream again.


• Watched the Jazz beat the Lakers.


• Visits on the phone with the wonderful mothers in our lives.


• This surprise gift from the kids (or I mean Nate)...

Do you think he was trying to hint something to me? After all, I only had dessert 3 times today!

But the best part was spending time with my little family. It was pouring rain all day so it was nice to be trapped inside with them on a cozy day. I love the rain.

Hope you all had a great Mother's Day too!
