Mother's Day and My First Blog Comment!

It is such an exciting thought that by next Mother's Day, I will have another precious child in my life!

Both Bret's family and my family are local, so for us that means double holidays.  This year, Bret's mom decided to do their Mother's Day celebration on Saturday so that we wouldn't have to be two places on the same day.  It was nice being with family on Saturday by the pool and BBQ - and then a nice brunch with more family on sunday after church.

I got the girls matching dresses - as this may be the last year I can get Lauren to do something like that!  Jordan had a dress shirt with similar colors and they all looked so cute!

After spending the day with the kids - being mom like any other day - I decided to treat myself to a movie marathon in the afternoon.  I went to see "Maid of Honor" and "The Visitor".  I highly recommend "The Visitor".  It was one of the best movies I have seen.  I was tempted then to see a third movie, but it was after 9pm, and I was tired, so I went home.  It was lovely though to get out all by myself, and then to come back and appreciate home even more.

I got my first comment on my blog yesterday!  I have been checking and it finally happened.  Thank you Angie!  We are on the CHI blogroll now, so I hope to more officially join the community.
