Second year Day 150 - Sunday May 12, 2013

Happy Mother's Day everyone!  (better late than never!)  Today was a really nice day.  We all headed to church together.  Stephany was the youth speaker and it was so much fun to have her talk on Mother's Day!  She did a great job!  Her topic--things my mother taught me.  After sacrament meeting, I took Arrianne and Bridgett home and then Arri stayed with Bridgett while I headed back to church.  It was nice to have a little time just to think!  After church we had some dinner and then we face timed with Jenn and her family.  The boys are all so grown up these days!  The babies are so cute!  Scott gave me a call as well, and it was nice to talk to him even though we had just spent time together last night.  I got to open some GREAT cards from the kids.  Stephany and Arrianne always make the BEST cards!  I gave my mom a call in the evening and it was great to talk to her as well.  She was at a little party that Shana's mom was giving.  Shana (Jon's wife) always seems to be helping mom out a lot and that's just great.  I know everyone tries to spend time with mom and I really appreciate that, since I'm not around much.  It's been a hard and lonely year and a half for her.  And of course, it was so hard on her to lose Chris so close to dad's passing.
