camping, kids play and mother's day





For the past several months the girls have been begging their dad to take them camping. This past friday night Nathan, Caroline and Kayleen went camping. They set up a spot by the creek in the woods at their Grandparents place. Allie and I joined them for supper and smores. The girls and Nathan actually sleep all night without hearing all the animals. Allie and I joined them again for breakfast but it was fixed at the house by Uncle Scott.

On saturday afternoon we meet up with some friends of ours to watch a childrens play. At the Dallas Children Theatre they had the play "If You Give A Pig A Pary". The girls thought the play was so funny. Great to see them have so much fun. After the play we went out for ice cream sandwiches.

Our weekend ends with a wonderful day of celebrating mothers. First, Nathan and the girls made me waffles with strawberries and whipcream. We joined Nathan's family for lunch which is always nice to be with family. After lunch we came home and relaxed. The girls and I baked and decorated some sugar cookies. Kayleen tells me they are the best sugar cookies she has ever had. I actually made them from scratch.

Thank you Mom for being a wonderful mother to us kids and showing us love in the home. You are still their for us each day and now the grandkids see the same love in your life. Hope I can remember the love I need to show my own three daughters. Happy Mother's Day to all the Wonderful Mothers!
