Mother's Day Weekend

Saturday morning was so nice the kids and I slept in till 9!! Momma really needed the extra sleep after being sick all week. I was feeling so refreshed. We spent most the morning playing outside enjoying the beautiful weather. The temperature got up to 60! Later we went to Fred Meyer to buy a birthday gift for Lance's friend, Elana. Lance wanted to pick out the gift all by himself. After some brain storming he decided she needed a swimsuit since she was going to Florida on vacation. He was pretty cute as he looked for the perfect swimsuit. While we were shopping an announcement came over the intercom about a game they were doing in the store for a Mother's Day gift. We quickly made our way to the front of the store where Lance was instructed to stand on a number. He walked around and looked at the numbers and then picked the number 3, "because I'm 3 years old". I told Lance that if they called 3 he should jump up and down because that meant  he had won. Sure enough, the first number called was 3. He jumped and down then turned and looked at me and said, "now what?". Lance got to pick out a beautiful hanging basket for his mother day gift. I was super excited!
Saturday evening was Elana's birthday party. We had been looking forward to it for a while. The party was held when Lance takes gymnastics at. The kids got to play on the gymnastics floor and have so much fun! It was such a good time. Lance and Elana are such good friends. I hate that she is moving away.
Daddy got home yesterday around noon. The kids and I couldn't have been more happy to see him. We have missed him so much. Andrew remembered how much I enjoyed the chocolate covered strawberries that he got me for Valentines day particularly the white chocolate ones. So for Mother's Day he got me a pound of all white chocolate covered strawberries. They were so yummy!! 
We enjoyed our Mother's Day just hanging out and being together as a family. The kids went to bed early last night so Andrew and I got to snuggle on the couch and watch a movie together. It was so nice! I wouldn't have changed a thing. I had the perfect Mother's Day! God has blessed me with a wonderful husband and the privilege to be these two amazing kids momma.
