Mother's Day

I had a lovely Mother's Day on Sunday. I was woken to a tray of gianormous pancakes, fruit, juice, and hot cocoa (my favorite) in bed. Isaac helped Daddy with breakfeast by staying asleep. Then Jarom fed Isaac, put him in the bath, and helped man him most of the morning so I could get ready unhindered. Just having Jarom home on a Sunday morning was a treat, but all the extras were WONDERFUL! I also got these beautiful flowers and a PIANO.

"Moms and Grads" Doesn't Rhyme

Mandy graduated from Idaho State University on Mother’s Day weekend. It was awesome that almost the whole family was there to celebrate together. Jarom and Mandy are very competitive with each other. Jarom is graduating in June and Mandy was supposed to graduate in the fall. This pleased Jarom very much that he was to be the first in the family to graduate! However, Mandy’s school consolidated all the year’s graduation into one for the entire year and her walk date was pushed up to May. Another point to Mandy!

Isaac and Anna had fun playing together. The bubbles were a favorite and really enthralled Isaac. Grandpa got Anna and Isaac some weird spiky/soft/rubbery toys that were totally fun and cool. Isaac wasn’t sure about them for a while and kept crinkling his nose up at it making us all laugh.

Grammy, What is that!?

Now, seriously, stop it!
Mom, make her stop!Oooh! Bubbles!Do it again!

On Mother’s Day Colter got up early and made us a WONDERFUL breakfast of waffles with strawberries, whipped cream, sausage, eggs, and juice. The best Mother’s Day breakfast ever! Thanks Colter!
The next day the boys went paintballing while the girls went house hunting and I worked. In the evening we went to see “Bye Bye Birdie” at the local play house for our Mother’s Day treat.
I wish we all lived closer together. It was a fun weekend that I wish we could do more often. We love you all!
