We've been rather busy these past few weeks doing home improvements, going to softball games and having our daughter, Kayla, surprise us with her amazing artwork that was selected for her school districts art show. We are so proud of her! She had us in suspense for a couple weeks because she wouldn't tell us what type of artwork she had done. It was so cute watching her run upstairs to put her dress on for the show. There was no need to dress up, but we followed her lead and we all went to the show in style. I must admit that I shed a few 'proud momma' tears when I saw what my sweet and talented young lady had created. Kayla's art teacher shared with us that she eagerly awaits what Kayla will do next.  I will continue to buy Kayla all the sketchbooks, pencils, pens, and markers that her big heart desires :)

Mother's Day

I had a very nice Mother's Day. Justin was working and Kayla had spent the night at Grandma's house. Ryan  slept in which meant I got to sleep in. That was delightful! Grandma brought Kayla home and we picked up my oldest son, Chase, from his dad's house and the four of us went to Chili's for lunch. It was a lot of fun. I'm very lucky to have three polite, smart, loving, witty, and funny kids. They grow up so fast and it's so cool to see them becoming their own person(s). Justin came home in time for dinner. So we all sat down, ate pizza, and watched the movie, Brave. What an awesome movie! I highly recommend it. It was a nice touch for Mother's Day. As Mojo says, it's time to get a grip and get back to the grind. I hope you all have a great Monday!
