My Mother's Day recap

I had a great Mother's Day! It was very low key and non-stressful and just wonderful.

It started with getting to sleep in. Bill got the kids up and got them breakfast, etc. Then he and Rebecca brought me up breakfast in bed--- eggs, turkey bacon (because Bill knows I am trying to be healthier), toast and orange juice. Rebecca gave me a card and a picture that she had colored. After eating breakfast, Bill, Jacob, Rebecca and I cuddled in our bed for a while and just talked and laughed and Bill and I tickled the kids. After we came downstairs I was met by a dozen roses, a card from Bill and a shirt from the kids for Mother's Day presents.

The only thing Bill asked is if I would watch the kids for half an hour while he went and ran. I said of course. While he ran, I watched the kiddos and did the dishes. Then showered and got dressed in my new t-shirt.

For lunch, we decided to get a quick bite to eat at McDonalds, as I have been loving their sweet tea lately!


We then headed out to my Mom's house for a cookout with my parents, brothers, sister, sister-in-law, niece and nephew. It was a nice day out and Rebecca and Jacob had a blast playing with their cousins.

Overall it was a great stress-free, delightful, low key Mother's Day. Just the way I like it! (Thanks honey, if you read this! I love you!)
