Mother's Day Weekend

So I know it's kind of late, but I had the best Mother's Day weekend! My sister and my nephews were in town, YAY! I always miss seeing Mason and Miles. Saturday morning Leslee called and wanted to take Liam and Miles on a walk since we are both trying to lose our baby weight. By the way, Leslee you are doing GREAT! You are looking awesome! It was so nice just to spend some sista time with her. Liam, of coarse, fell asleep before we got to the end of Nonnie and Grandpa's driveway, and Miles had a great time just looking around.

I told you that my niece Ella Gracin's 1st birthday was on Saturday. Turns out E.G. doesn't really like her cousins. Ha! Any time she was around Liam or Miles she screamed bloody murder! It was a little the first few times and then I just got a headache. lol. I'm sure she will grow out of it and be bossing them around before too long. For now E.G. we still love you and you are the cutes little girl, just maybe not so loud next time. Ha! Besides that Ella Gracin's Birthday party was a huge success! Everyone had a great time...including Mason who absolutely LOVED the cupcakes! But then again who wouldn't love a big pink cupcake!

Later that day we went to J's Uncle Michael and Aunt Karen's house for a Mother's Day cookout. We always have such a great time with his family and they always love seeing Liam. Must be nice to always be the center of attention!

Sunday, we had to get up extra early for church. Liam was dedicated and we had to be there early for practice! We had two whole rows of seats just for our Fam. lol. It was so nice and moving to look and see our families supporting us as we made a commitment to always raise Liam in church. After church we went to Nonnie and Grandpa's for Bar-B-Q......Yummy! I made strawberry shortcake with home made whipped cream. Which isn't hard but OH GOSH it's soooooo good! J actually gave me my Mother's Day gift last week (he is absolutely TERRIBLE at keeping secrets). I got an awesome key necklace and a new wallet. He did save the card until Sunday though and of course I cried!
All in all it was a wonderful weekend! It was definitely exhausting, but so worth getting to spend time with the FAM. Again, please pray for us as we head to Indiana this weekend to see Scott, Liam's Poppy. I know it will be another great weekend, I'm just a little nervous about the drive!
