Mothers Day

This time of year is my favorite because I get so spoiled. My Birthday always falls close to Mothers Day and sometimes even shares the same day. I love Mothers Day. It is a day that I get to relax and do nothing but reflect on the joys of Motherhood. My two boys make me cards and shower me with kisses and I love yous all day long. My sweet Husband takes over my daily job of making meals and cleaning. We visit family members and Grandma's and enjoy each others company. Every year its simple, but I love it more than words can explain!

This year we all got together and took a picture with Grandma Donna. 

Every one was there minus a few cousins.

What better reason to celebrate Mothers Day than these two boys? 

Could they get any cuter?? I think not!

I love my boys, I love my Husband, I love my Life!

29 Years Young

On the 9th of this month I turned 29! Wow I only have one more year before I hit 30...that is a scary thought :) Well I was so spoiled that my Birthday turned into a week long celebration! It started the day before because some of our best friends were leaving out of town on my actual birthday. A group of our closest friends went to Pei Wei for dinner and then bowling afterwards. 

My order number was 29...so appropriate!

We got to the bowling alley kind of late so we were the only people there bowling. The 2 workers bowled next to us and took us on in a competition. I had to take a picture of our bowling names because they were so off the wall.

When we were done bowling the workers played "Happy Birthday" and gave me some twilight trading cards and a book mark. Totally random but funny!

On my Birthday Eric totally spoiled me by taking me to lunch and dinner. That night he had softball games that he couldn't get out of so my neighborhood stepped in and took me out to Olive Garden for dessert and and a movie after that. No pictures but our group of 9 had such a blast!

Then the following Monday the Young Women's leaders took me to dinner at Zupas. I'm telling ya I have the best people in my life that shower me with gifts and really know how to make me feel special. I am so grateful to all of them!

I got to relax and play with these two the whole day and I loved every minute of it! Thank you everyone for another amazing Birthday!

Just a Preview...

Last week I took some family pictures for some good friends of ours. They turned out so cute that I had to put a few up on the blog for them to see. Here are just a few of my favorites. Enjoy...
