Mothers Day Weekend

What a fabulous weekend! This year we decided to spend Saturday with my mom for Mothers Day and Sunday with Linda. That way we aren't so stressed out trying to spend quality time with both of them. So, on Saturday Greg, Miranda, and Sid came down and Caesy was there and we went to the Health Days parade. Simon loved it! It was a little cold for me and Miranda, but it was worth it cause the kids had so much fun! It was fun to also have my Grandma Downs there with us this year!

It so fun watching Cody be such a great dad! He loves doing all these activities with Simon. He really liked showing Simon the "fast cars" in the parade.
After the parade we went back to my parents house for a cookout and some much needed relaxation! I'm pretty sure Greg got uncle of the year for playing with all the kids! Poor Miranda has to deal with two kids all the time!!! :) No, Greg is so fun with the kids, they love him!!
And of course, anytime I can get a picture of Caesy and her beautiful freckles, I must do it! I love her so much! She is getting so grown up!
Sunday we spent the day with the Johnsons. It was so great to see Heather and Jody and the kids. Sorry I have no pictures from Sunday....my battery died!!!! AGHHHH!
Anyway, we had an amazing dinner and played some games. Simon sure does love his cousins! He needs that "boy bonding" time! He was so wore out when we got home! He played pretty hard with them! It's amazing to me how he can be so rough with the boys and then so gentle with little Brielle! It's pretty great!
I had an awesome Mothers Day! I got a fabulous card from Cody and Simon (what is it about your kids scribbley pictures that can melt your heart?). I got Mario Kart for the Wii for mothers day, but I couldn't wait for Sunday....so, I've been playing with that for a couple days now! So fun!!!
Anyway....Happy Mothers Day to all those fabulous Mothers out there! I love all the moms in my life and I appreciate all they do for me and my family!!!

I forgot all about the parade - that would have been fun to go to. Glad you had such a great weekend. Funny that you got Mario Kart and I opted for Wii Fit. Maybe we should trade?

Hey it was good to see you at the parade. Good old Health Days. It kinda sucks that they took it off of Main St. What's up with that?
