Mother's Day Weekend

Mother's Day weekend was wonderful! On Saturday, I started the morning by taking breakfast and flowers to a dear friend, Ms. Virgina. She used to work in the nursery of our church and babysit for me often. She fell and broke her hip on Christmas Eve and the recovery has been loooong. I just wanted her to know that we love her and miss seeing her!

Later for lunch, I took Austin to Dave & Buster's at the Frisco Mall for a birthday party. It was great to have an "Austin & Mommy Day". My mom, Casey and Emma met us at the mall after the birthday party and we just hung out for a couple of hours. Austin got to ride the carousel, get a hot cocoa from Starbucks, play at the play area, get a cookie sweet treat and then Uncle Casey bought him some cologne! Austin had a full day! Russell and I had a "date night" that night. We had John Scarbro come and babysit. The kids just love him! Russell and I went to Logan steak house for dinner and we went to see the movie 10,000 B.C. It was a good movie. Russell and I really enjoyed the time together. We have not been on a date night in more than 6 months!

On Sunday, Lauren was not feeling good so Russell stayed home with her and I took Sammy and Austin to church. Russell instisted I take the day off and spend it with my mom and grandmtoher. He is so wonderful!! A day off is just what I needed! So after church, I met my mom and grandmother at La Madline for lunch. What a treat to sit and visit with them! My mom and I were able to go shopping after lunch. I am 16 weeks along in my pregnancy so I am at the inbetween stage. My clothes are starting to not fit, but my materntiy stuff is a bit too big. I was able to find some great things at Target and Kohl's. Woo hoo!!! Now I have something to wear to church!!

After spending time with my mom and grandmother, I came home for a Mother's Day dinner. Russell cooked out and made burgers. They were sooooo tastey!! I enjoyed the time with the kids. They made me some cute crafts and cards. They are such a blessing! I cannot imagine life without my little ones! God has truly blessed Russell and I!
