Mother's Day

I had a great Mother's Day weekend. It started with a digital scrapbooking retreat on Friday with Julie and Brooke. Since I'm pretty much Photoshop illiterate, it was fun to play around with it and work on a few srapbook projects (although I now have even more partially completed projects). After teaching my primary lesson on Sunday, Melissa, Tristyn and I loaded up and headed for Rexburg for a BBQ at DanaRae's house for our mom. We put Tristyn forward facing and she LOVED it! She had a perma-grin for the first 30 minutes of the trip! Melissa loved the tub of toys that kept Tristyn entertained for the whole trip.



Diane and Emelia were also there. Emelia made a super cute little bird house for grandma and gave her a big kiss on the cheek.



Tristyn loved cralking (crawling/walking) around Rae's house and especially liked crawling up and down the single stair that separates the front room from the kitchen.



Hanging out with Grandma.



It was a special Mother's Day since a lot of the family was able to get together to also celebrate my mom's graduation from Nursing School, which was the following night in Jackson. We have an awesome mom that never gives up and works dang hard for every little thing she has. We are lucky to have such a great example of love, service, and endurance. It was awesome to spend the day with her!

Dan and Mason spent the day with his mom and sister. Julie was so nice to invite them, even though she had to cook her own Mother's Day dinner! Thanks for including them!

To all the moms out there . . . I hope you had a great day!
