My Mother's Day!!

I had a wonderful and very relaxing Mother's Day this year. I started out with us just hanging out at the house all morning and playing with the girls. I am not a big breakfast person, so I didn't get breakfast in bed, but I got coffee in bed :)

Well, when the girls and I got up, I wanted to get a pic of us and I could not find my camera anywhere!! I finally remembered that I had it out in the backyard on Friday when I was watching the girls swim. I ran outside and found my camera sitting in a puddle of water on top of the BBQ pit. I freaked out!! I hurried up and took the battery out of it and dried it off really good. Well, the girls and I started to take a picture together and the lense was fogging up soo bad. It finally got to where I could not see anything. I was so mad at myself for forgetting about it outside. Yes, I want another camera, but no I don't really need to spend the money on it right now. Plus, I wanted my Mother's Day pics and I almost cried thinking I wasn't going to capture them on my camera. So, while the girls played in the tub, I sat on the floor in the bathroom and blow dried my camera on low heat and it worked!!!!!!!! I was SUPER excited!! I will NEVER forget about it outside again.

We then headed over to my grandma's house for lunch with my mom, her bf, my sisters, my uncles, my grandma and us all had some yummy BBQ chicken, veggies, potatoes salad and beans. It was soo good!! Avery and Haidyn played with everyone and put on a show for us all. We sat outside and just visited. It was alot of fun. After my grandma's we just went home and relaxed for the rest of the evening. I got some great gifts and James and I decided that our gift to each other for Mother's/Father's Day will be a couples massage!! I guess we will be doing that next month and I SO cannot wait.

I am soo grateful for my sweet little girls and James. I love them soo very much and I am soo PROUD to be a mommy!!

Happy (late) Mother's Day, Ash!!! Looks like you had a great day! Couple massages sound nice. I have always wanted to try one- you'll have to let me know what you think.

You're a great mommy to those precious girls!
