Mother's Day

It was a great Mother's Day weekend this year!

On Friday, Elizabeth and I went to Joshua's preschool Mother's Day program. He sang 2 songs with his class and then handed me a pink rose and a card he had made.

On Saturday we had Brett and Stephanie's family over for a BBQ and enjoyed being outside in the nice weather.

On Sunday I got a nice nap, and we ate one of my favorite dinners: taco salad a la Our Best Bites. Benjamin presented me with a note and pencil cup that he made at school. Nathan performed a song that he had written just for me!

"I love you a lot. Thank you for making very good lunches and diners. Thanks for letting us play the wii and lting us play till 5:00! Thanks for getting a basement and flat screen tv."

(just to clarify, the flat screen tv won't happen for a while . . . he's a little early in his thanks!)

"Hey Mother, Hey Mother, it's Mother's day and I've got something to say;
I love you, I love you, with all my heart, I love you much more than I art."

The presents I received looked amazingly similar to the baskets we had purchased recently at the Spring Festival basket auction :) We got a Blend-Tec blender, and Ryan got it out for the first time -- yum!
