Mothers Day

My Mother's Day was a nice one, despite a lil sadness.  It was Johns (& my first Mother's Day without his mom) & we learned that his Dad had his 3rd stroke in 6 weeks that morning. :(

The boys made me blueberry pancakes from scratch complete with Carter cracking the egg & John doing his darndest to retrieve all the broken egg shells!!  We then picked up Jersey Mikes subs & headed to a park to have a picnic & serious play time.    (We have more pics on the good camera)

Then thought was that we'd all go to Home Depot to pick out flowers for the house....but the 3 littles were starting to fall apart.  I went by myself, which allowed me time to hem & haw over a kinds of flowers & plants & veggies.  I picked up ice cream on the way home.  Yum!!!

My parents came up & John. & my dad & a lil of me helped make stuffed chicken Marsala.  It was delicious!  The guys had run to the store to get a few ingredients & all 3 boys had bonked heads at the same time & it was tearful & screamful....aiyiyi....  Next time my mom & I will go to the store. :)

It was a lovely visit with them & we are thankful they came up to us on this lovely holiday. :). (We do hope that someday we will live close enough to them so the hour drive is non-existent).

Logan wanted in:

Later in the evening.....just my first born. & I.  

Oh how I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE being a Mom to these 3 handsome boys!!!!!!
