20120513 Mothers day (3) edit

Mother's Day came. I wasn't allowed the satisfaction of saying it was my first, since nobody believes I'm an actual mother until I have an actual baby to take care of. Pshh... haha! I did get flowers at church though! Once again, I had to leave them in Utah for my Dad’s flower bed. I just don’t think they’d like them at the border?

We celebrated with the whole family.

These handsome men are my Dad and brothers, who prepared the most delicious meal for all of us!

The following week was full of family as well! We visited my brother Tyler's family in Lake Point, had dinner, went to my niece's violin performance and stayed a night with them.
I was horrible at taking pictures this week, but we did get a few videos from our iphone this day!


Also, Ty and Missy just finished part of their huge backyard. A SPLASH PAD! Nice.

The next day we just walked next door to my sister Gwen's new gorgeous home!
We really enjoyed visiting with Gwen during the day, talking about having babies and such, we toured their house for the first time since it’s been done, helped her set up for my baby shower and then we had dinner with them! Gwen’s boys are so adorable…

The next night we went to my sister Heather’s house, we played with their kids, stole all of her baby stuff (THANK YOU HEB), and watched a movie on their new comfy sectional. I have no pictures!! Gah!

We had so much fun with Gwen's, Tyler's and Heather’s families this week... It is the best thing in the world to be able to go to all of their houses one by one and spend time with them and their kids...

The next day we went up to Salt Lake to walk around the new City Creek Mall next to Temple Square… Another beautiful day as you can see.

How fun! I haven't been to Utah in a long time. It is a great place to visit. I'll bet you miss it a lot! I'm glad you had a good trip and we're happy to have you back up here in the north country.

I had to show Erik and Ash their videos. Erik wants to keep watching his over and over. Aaron sure makes it fun when you guys come (and we like having you too Amber :) We visited Canada this past week and thought of you guys as we bought maple cookies. Maybe next summer, huh? :)
