* I attended the annual ‘Donuts for Divas’
at the boys’ school on Friday morning.
This pic stirred up quite a few comments on my Instagram
{Follow me HERE} and just to clarify – –
My arm is resting on my leg, which is crossed onto my OTHER leg.
Where my wrist is laying, is actually GRANT’S leg – – not mine. I’m wearing a black dress – – and not a black booty shorts jumper set. Lol. Quite confusing, huh?
* Afterewards, we got to see Carson do his Inventor’s Presentation
on Walt Disney.
Talk about BEAMING the whole way through
his speech!
We made {and by ‘we’ I really mean ‘ I ‘ made} Mickey Mouse cookies for his classmates.
Super easy – It’s a big Oreo dipped in red chocolate, two mini Oreos stuck on as ears and two yellow mini M&Ms.
* Afterwards I treated myself to a pedicure – –
it WAS afterall Mother’s Day weekend, how could I resist?
Purple, of course!
* I picked up London from my parent’s house afterwards
and we headed to Cafe Rio for lunch.
Best. Salad. EVER! |
I’m really gonna miss our little lunch dates when she starts up Kindergarten in July.
* Friday night, Joe took the boys to see The Amazing Spiderman 2
while London and I attended a darling little baby shower for my good friend and hairdresser.
She has a daughter London’s age, and they adore each other.
* Saturday morning I did sleep in.
{A Mother’s Day weekend miracle within itself.}
* I also cleaned the bathrooms.
{A Mother’s Day weekend nightmare within itself!}
* We attended London’s cute little dance recital.
Little girls + Dance costumes = CUTEST things EVER!
* Afterwards, we took my parents out to dinner.
We ate HERE – – it’s one of our very favorite Chandler joints.
{Order their pizza muffins!}
* On Sunday we woke up bright and early {Isn’t 7:30 bright and early to everyone else?!} and headed over to my sister’s house to chat with my nephew Ryan via Skype.
{He’s currently serving a Mormon Mission in Barcelona, Spain!}
He comes home in 2 1/2 more months and we are all SO excited to see him again.
* Churchey- church Sunday afternoon.
Shortly after this pic was taken, I MAY or MAY NOT have told my unruly kids that I didn’t want to sit next to them at church.
{In my defense they were teasing, whining, running around, not listenting to me, etc.}
I thought though that I might get some funny looks from other people, so I decided with it being Mother’s Day afterall, I should probably stick with the fam.
{Smile}.
* We ate dinner at my parents house afterwards and nearly ate so much
they had to roll us out the doors.
{BBQ chicken, potato casserole, pretzel jello salad, green feta salad, rolls, corn on the cob
and chocolate eclair cake for dessert!}
So blessed to call my mom MINE!
Any weird hosting/entertaining/party planning O.C.D.-ness that I have – – – I blame 100% on her.
She’s set the bar so HIGH for my siblings and I as a mother – – and I could not be more grateful.
Blessed Indeed!
