Yesterday was my 36th birthday and Mothers Day all rolled up into one! I always feel jipped a day when this happens, but everyone made up for it yesterday! The kids had the house all clean when I got up and Gary made french toast, bacon, and hash browns for breakfast. Chelsey bought some strawberries and whip cream to put on the french toast, too! Then Gary and Chelsey did the dishes (one of the only times I have EVER seen Gary do them! That was a gift in itself!!!) We laid around and watched movies for awhile and then I got to take a super hot bath all by myself! Not even Ellie came in! (another gift!!!) For dinner, Gary grilled some tri-tip roasts (thanks, David for turning us on to a new favorite!) and I threw together some salads. As I was making them, Gary tells me,"I feel really bad you have to do this on your day, but they just wouldn't be as good if I made them." I'm thinking it was a total line of bull, but it was okay; I really didn't mind! Gary's parents were celebrating their 40th anniversary so they came up and ate dinner with us. It was a really relaxing day and I loved every minute of it!
A big thank you to Chelsey for spoiling me! She worked her tail off and saved enough money to go all out and spend it on me! I loved it, Chelsey; thanks! Also, thank you to Mikayla for the flowers, I can't wait for the weather to turn better and get out and plant them. They will remind me of you all summer! Braquel and Keven, thanks for the awesome purse and candle and the garden set. You guys are the best!Thanks for spending your evening with us. Thank you for the rockin' necklace and earrings, Treven and Ellie! You're so sweet! And to my dearest husband-thank you so much for your gift! I can't wait for our family pictures to be done! I love you all and I am so proud to be your mom and wife!
