Mother's Day

On Saturday, we went out to CT to celebrate Mother's day with Dan's family. It was good times as usual. Nice and relaxed... except for Nicholas, near the end he got pretty wound up and this was the only shot I could get of him. Definitely blurry from his overabundance of energy.
He's getting so big!
And I had to take pictures of my mother-in-law's yard. I still can't get over how green and lush everything gets here on the East Coast.
Huge leaves!
Gorgeous flowers every where.

Then on Sunday Dan kept telling me to make the bed. He sent me a text after he left for church, but I didn't see it until after I got on the train (and I definitely had not made the bed). Then after church I was trying to get changed and settle in and he kept bugging me to make the bed with him. I'm pretty sure I was a little snappy with his demands. But when I went to lift up my pillow...
I had my favorite candy, a smutty magazine (my weakness) and a hilarious mother's day card (No this is not an announcement for anything, I promise!). Isn't he a good husband? I like him : )

That evening we got to talk to my brother Connor on the phone. He's on a mission for our church and can only call home on Mother's day and Christmas, the rest of the time we write letters and emails. It was fun to listen to him (he does most of the talking in the conversation because that's just how Connor rolls : ) And of course I chatted with my mama. I get to see her so soon! The difficulty of the half marathon will be tempered with being able to hang out with the mom which will definitely be good times!

Yay for mom's!
