Mother's Day 2012

We celebrated Mother's Day with Mimi and Grandmama Saturday night.  We fried shrimp, onion rings, hush puppies and french fires.  It was all so yummy!  It was a little messy of a day but it turned out to be perfect because it wasn't so dang hot!  Mimi loved her gifts...the kids painted her a flower pot with their hand prints and Colton's foot print, being that he kept closing his hand before we could get paint on it.  Then the girls finished decorating it the way they wanted it.  They made a mess, but it turned out great. 

We took Nana her Mother's Day gift on Friday, some beautiful flowers that Hayden and Gracie picked out and some updated pictures of all the babies!  Nana was very surprised and excited.  We didn't take them until later on Friday so Gracie and Colton had fallen asleep in the car, but Hayden got to give her some kisses and hugs. 

Since I wasn't feeling well and it rained all day yesterday, I celebrated my Mother's Day by not leaving my house at all!  Mark and the girls went to buy me a present and Little Man took a nap the whole time they were gone.  So I did what I always do...clean!  I know, but it makes me feel good when everything is in its place and put up.  So after I cleaned up the nice mess of a house they left me with, I watched Dirty Dancing, one of my all time favorite movies!  I remember I was in the 3rd grade when it came out!   When Mark and the girls got back home they had Krispy Kreme donuts, a new shirt and a new pair of flip flops.  They did so good, I loved it all!  Hayden also had me a book about Mommy's and she read the whole thing to me.   She was so proud of herself and I was pretty proud of her too.  Evidently Mimi had been practicing with her for a couple of weeks.  Thank you Mimi for thinking of me and making a very special memory.  They also let me choose what we were having for dinner and that was Spaghetti, and it was delicious.  Mark dislikes Spaghetti very much but he ate it anyways since it was Mother's Day.  After dinner all 3 of my loves crawled up in my lap to watch America's funniest videos. 


Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful Mommy's out there!  I know I sure feel loved!

Here are some updated pictures also:
