Mothers Day family time

We had a great family gathering for Mothers Day this year. Amy and Chris invited us over for Lasagna, and boy was it good! We all brought dishes to share and we had a great dinner. Here I am with my sister Marcy in the center and our Mom.Everyone enjoyed visiting and eating. Amy set up a "kids table" and I think that was 2 year old Cailyns first time to get to join the cousins eating at it! Here she's being watched over by her Grandpa Vince.
Here is my daughter Amy with her Grandpa!

We had a "Mom's" photo....
Mike and Corissa were there and there is MB holding little Landon.
Bode got such a kick out of watching his cousins with the squirt guns. He's got the best belly laugh, you just hope he stops to breathe!
Here's Bode with Papa...
So before all went home we decided we'd get a shot of all the cousins together....what fun was that! It was hilarious. Here's the best one I got, I'll put the others on here just cuz it's fun to see what little ones do! We just need Noah in the mix now.... only 3 more weeks!!! What a great time we all had, thanks Amy and Chris for hosting such a fun get together for us!

Mother's Day Luncheon

I got to accompany my Mom to a lovely luncheon for ladies that was held at her church. It was such a nice relaxing thing to do. My Dad's cousin Dea went along so it was nice to enjoy them both for the day. They had programs and cute little place cards with an angel pin for everyone.
The entertainment was wonderful, this harpest who sang and played for us with her daughter, it was like listening to the angels sing.
My Dad was there too, he was on the "ice tea committee"!So it was fun for him to be in on the good food, entertainment and socialization! What a lovely event they planned for us all!

Happy Mothers Day !

I got to enjoy a lovely Mothers day luncheon with My Mom today at their Church. Mom invited Marcy and I to join her for a lovely lunch (prepped and served by the men). There were cute little welcome cards with tiny birdhouse pins that someone had made out of little wooden pieces and painted...very cute...and a nice program !We had time at their house first for a few little gifts and pictures before my Dad had to go do his duties for setting up.

He was in charge of the ice tea and water ! Everything was so cheery, all in pretty pastels.

There were about 100 ladies there, they had a nice speaker and also a wonderful man who entertained us with his guitar and voice. What a nice time to enjoy together !

Ladies Brunch

MB hosted us at her house today for a wonderful ladies brunch, a pre-mothers day event ! How fun and relaxing to have a few hours together to just sit and visit.
