Mother's Day Fun in the Sun!


Mitch sent me a gorgeous bouquet of tulips



The boys made me picture frames at Traci's house



Sawyer made me this cute handprint flower card and drew a picture of me. I love that he tried really hard to trace the letters to sign his name all by himself :)


After having such a busy Saturday, I chose to spend Sunday in the laziest way possible - relaxing in the sun and playing in the backyard. We took a quick trip to Target and picked up a Slip-N-Slide for the boys and came home and set up our own mini water park in the backyard. We put out the fire hydrant sprinkler that Stella got Sutton for his birthday, blew up the mini pool, set out the Slip-N-Slide and hooked up the boys' water slide (which later ended up IN the pool with them). My water-loving boys were in heaven! The weather was a toasty 90 degrees, so it was a perfect contrast to all that chilly hose water!




Mitch was having just as much fun on the Slip-N-Slide as the boys were! He definitely made the biggest splash!

Proof that I tried the water slide too! (I warned you all before that I may possibly be the palest person you'll ever meet LOL! I am quite a bit more tan now that I spent the whole day in the sun though - yay!)

Kudos for posting a swim suit shot. You are braver than I. You look tan in the shoulders.

What a fun Mother's Day! Glad you all had a good time!


I wish we could share some of that hot weather!
