Mom's Day!

We had a very wonderful Mother's Day. It's great to be able to give back to your mom when she does so much for you...my sisters and all our husbands made my mom dinner for once! We all brought our own meat and sides and dad grilled. After stuffing ourselves, we went outside where it was a little chilly but the sun was shinning and we played some ladder ball. Austin initiated this game and we all ended up having a blast! Who knew that when you got your body moving a little you can actually break a sweat even when it's chilly outside!! When the babies woke from their naps we came in and enjoyed a little dessert that Emily made-some kind of brownie goodness! Austin was with his dad Friday and Saturday so his dad helped him make a fruit kabob flower for me...it was really yummy! He also got me a wood wick candle and a plaque that says mothers are a precious gift of love! He has such a good heart! I love Mother's Day! Before heading home to New Hampton we stopped in and saw my Grandma Smith. I always love seeing her! Even though we weren't able to see Brian's mom on mother's day, we saw her on Saturday night. We gave her a bouquet of flowers that were beautiful. Mat and Steph were also home so we got to see them for a little bit too! We enjoyed a nice dinner and then headed home for baths and bed. Thank-you, moms for everything that you do. You are so special to us and to your grandkids! We love you!
