Memorial Day Weekend

We spent the weekend at Pam and Bryan's house. It was fun for us to see all the family again. We hadn't been up there since Christmas. The boys were so excited to see there cousin McCayla. They bugged her the whole weekend. They just love spending time with her. Hopefully, they will play with Zach more when he gets bigger. It was also Michael's birthday on Sunday so Pam surprised him with a little party. We were able to meet his girlfriend Andi for the first time. She seems very nice and she was good with the kids. I don't know what she sees in my brother (just kidding). I was able to do some catching up with my Mom and Dad. It was just a great weekend altogether.

In a couple of weeks we are going to go camping at Lake Carlyle. That should be fun. We went camping last year at this time and we had a blast.

Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to all Moms. I hope that everyone felt very special. We spent the day with Mike's Mom. We gave her the quilt pictured on the left. Mom yours will look similar with some toned down colors. I will try to get it done soon and send it to you. My boys and hubby are making me a potting bench. It is not done either. They also gave me two trees to plant in the yard. One is a dogwood and one is a Magnolia. I didn't have any spring flowering trees. I mostly have maple trees. I spent the sunny day yesterday planting these and other bushes and flowers. Our yard is really starting to spruce up with all of the flowers and stuff that I have been planting.

We celebrated Cameron's 4th birthday this weekend. It is hard for me to believe that it has been four years since we had him. He likes the movie Cars so I made him a Lightening McQueen cake. It took me four hours to decorate this cake and it took only a half hour to devour it. We had a few people over for the celebration. It was fun, but I am sure glad that the week is over. It was a busy one.

Garage Sale

We had our first official garage sale since we have been married. It went okay, not as well as we had wished. I think that the cooler weather and our long driveway hindered us a little bit. The good thing that came of it was that Mike ended up organizing and cleaning the shed, the garage and the downstairs furnace room. He is a whiz at organizing. We are now very tired and we have a full week ahead of us.
Cameron's birthday is on Friday, but we will probably celebrate on Saturday. I need to prepare for that, but I have to get through a week of busyness first. I have MOPS on Wednesday for which I have to prepare a craft and bring a whole bunch of stuff to the meeting. I also have a Threads of Life (sewing ministry) meeting at church. And on Thursday I have a triple baby shower.
