Mom's Day

Mother's Day around our house is usually pretty quiet - nothing fancy or overdone, just a day with my family and a little time to relax. I started out the day going to Sunday School with Jenna. They were supposed to invite their moms to come along so we could do some activities with them. After church, Cheryl and London came over and we helped her celebrate her first Mother's Day with pizza for lunch (see, I told you we aren't fancy!) and a Mother's Day photo shoot in the backyard. I spent most of the afternoon planting flowers with Jacob and catching up on DVR'd shows. Later Chris' parents, Becca and Ryan came over for dinner prepared by Chris and his dad - steak and chicken on the grill, potato salad, baked beans, chips, and ice cream cake from DQ for dessert. I think this is the first Sunday in a long time when I haven't done laundry or grocery shopping or cleaned up around the house. It was nice to just have a relaxing day with my family.


The Moms.....

Sounds like a great Mother's Day, and very relaxing. I love the pix with your kids, since you're not usually in them. I hope you had a relaxing b'day as well!
