Mother's Day 2011

We had a great weekend! Even though I had two sickies in the house, there wasn't a lot of whining...and no time outs! A Mother's Day Miracle :)

Friday night, we attended Preston's going away party! He is being sworn in to the Marines today.
We had a good time hanging out with friends! The boys played Horse Shoes, and Bocce Ball, while the girls talked and the babies played. Annabelle fell no less than 3 times while we were there, but got some pretty cool Garfield band aids :)

Saturday, Collin got up and went with a group from church to Alabama, to help with the clean up from the Tornadoes. Annabelle and I went grocery shopping and napped.

Poor Girl :( Not feeling good at all!

I planned for us to go to the park, but She wasn't feeling it...poor girl, her allergies were bothering her bad and she didn't even have a voice :(

Sunday, I woke up to the prettiest necklace for Mother's Day!



L-R: A (Annabelle), E (Erin), C (Collin)

It was the perfect Mother's Day gift!

Me and my sweet girl!

It is something I will wear every day, and cherish! And it has room for more charms...WAY down the road :)

We went to church, then had lunch with Carson, Laurice, and Weston. We are so blessed to have family that we are so close with! And cousins that love each other! So blessed!
We came home for naps, but Collin and I have been playing Words with Friends...and it was an intense game...so there was no nap! The best part...I won!

Mom and Dad came over for dinner, Chicken Chili (YUM!) and Hershey Pie (Double YUM!).
We had the best time, playing, walking, and picking flowers :)

While walking, Annabelle busted is twice before getting back to the house :( Poor girl...can't catch a break! She had double boo boo's and both knees. We ended the night with a bath and some Gabba :)

When I dropped Annabelle off at school this morning, her teacher gave me some artwork Annabelle has done...and I love hanging her pictures up in my office :)
