Mother's Day Weekend 2011 |
What a great weekend I just had!
It started out with James graduating from the University of Utah and telling us he had a new job that would take them to St. George to live. In this economical climate how exciting for him, Kristin, and Annie. Although I am sad they are moving, it is only a few hours drive away. With them moving to St. George it makes it half way to Casey, Cindy and Lucy who are also moving....but alas not Utah but sunny California. Road trips, mini vacations, weekend get-aways...ummm I could enjoy a few of those! (okay, a lot of those)
- We went out for a Chicken Tikka Masala curry to celebrate Friday's graduation. (and it was one of the best I have ever had there!)
- A sweet friend of mine got married and I was lucky enough to be a part of the planning from the beginning to the end. There are a lot of very wonderful women in our area who helped with all the planning, serving and making it a wonderful day to remember. Okay, a shout out to the guys in Last Chance the Band, Peter, Kort, Matt, Gerry, Russ & Derick who made a great wedding even better with their music! Last Chance Website
- I learned all over again why my daughter-in-law Kristin is so super...She took all the wedding photo's along with James's help from time to time.
- Mother's Day....what a fun afternoon we had. It started with a family traditional sloppy joe dinner and just got better and better with laughter and lots of love being shared.
- I was able to spend Mother's Day with all my children and grandchildren, my mom, my brother and his family including those who are married with children of their own.
- My sweet niece, Keyara, painted my fingernails, blue-green while she was here!
- My other sweet niece, Heather, gave us a cute book called "Five Minutes' Peace" and a book mark about mothers that even brought
tears to Peter's eyes! - I discovered this morning on my iPhone some cute pictures of Drew, Joshua and Megan. My sweet Ellie Ellie's Family Friday took those as a surprise for me!
As I tumbled into bed last night after a very busy weekend, tears came to my eyes, I felt so blessed to have sweet friends, children and their spouses, grandchildren (yes, I have the cutest!!), a brother and his family, my mother, and of course Peter who love and support me!

How could it not have been a great
Weekend to Remember?!!!
It was a fun weekend. The curry was delicious, I loved my manicure, the company was fantastic, and I'm excited to hear James and Kristin will be closer to us.
