Mother’s Day ‘08

Me and the Kids

Hope you all had a good Mother’s Day. Mine went well… I had hoped to be able to stay home all day, but Joe wanted to go to the annual Mother’s Day breakfast at the Beaver Creek Grange… Every year most of Joe’s family meet there for breakfast, and this year was no exception. I think Joe likes to go because it’s all you can eat, and he can eat him some breakfast!

Joe

And he’s not the only one (I am always amazed by the amount of food that girl can eat! *rofl*)…

Alicia... Before

Alicia... After

Jared, Josh, and Amanda all ate well too…

After breakfast we went over to Joe’s parents’ house for an hour or two, and just chatted while DeeDee (one of Joe’s sisters) cut Jared, Josh, Jacob, Scott, and Jim’s hair.

When we got home, I kicked back on the computer while Joe did a little bit of picking up (gotta love Mother’s Day!), and then later he BBQ’d hamburgers for dinner. (Alicia took this picture for me :) )

Joe

Then after dinner, Joe did the dishes and wiped down the counters… Like I said, you gotta love Mother’s Day!!! :mrgreen:

Oh… I was also sweet taked by Jared to play a racing game on the playstation for the first time. *lol* … Jared wanted to play the Nascar game, but I in NO WAY have that kind of skill level. *snicker* So, I told him I would race with Disney’s Cars, or not at all…. So, there I was, sitting on Josh’s bed playing play station… With the kids laughing their heads off at my (not so) driving skills… Let’s just say that I gave the term “off road” a whole new meaning. ;)

I also got a couple bouquets today!! … It’s VERY rare that I even get one, much less two! ;)

Here is the one I got from Joe:

Roses from Joe

And here is the one I got from Alicia:

Hope everyone had a wonderful Mother’s Day!!!

Love ya!

I almost just deleted the pictures of me and the kids. It’s ICK… And it’s the reason why the pictures are smaller this time. *rofl* … When Joe was taking it he said he couldn’t hardly see me, and I’m like “That’s the point!” ;)

What a great husband. Happy Mother’s Day!

He sure has come a LONG way! :mrgreen:

Those are lovely flowers you got :)
I think you’re right - it would be nice to have a weightloss buddy to work at this with. I think we both have treadmills as well so we can workout ;) Matt is going to buy me Wii fit, when it finally gets back in stock lol.
Hope you are having a good week

I wish we had a Wii, so I could get that Wii fit too… I think I’m going to pull out and dust off my Leslie Sansone tapes. Seems like I had better luck with those. :D

The Wii is out newest toy, Matt came home with it last Thursday and I was really pleased :) took the last of our “spare” money which is why I’m also having to wait for Wii fit, it is selling for soooo much money on ebay right now!

The flowers are beautiful! I love the picture of you with your children!! Sounds like you had a wonderful Mother’s Day!!!

Well, I like the part of the picture that the kids are in… Just wish Joe would have cut out my fat legs on the bottom! *rofl*
