Mother's Day 2009

I had Dustin snap some pictures of the girls and I before church. It was a wonderful day for me. I enjoyed a peaceful morning while Dustin played with the girls and helped them make me cards. I also had the chance to look over pictures of my first couple of years of motherhood. Oh, how my angels have blessed my life with such joy and love! I couldn't ask for a better place to be in my life than being a mother to my beautiful daughters.





Here is a look into the past of my previous Mother's Days.

The garden

This is our garden. My friend, Kim, and I are doing it together, and with a lot of help from Dustin and some child care from David (Kim's husband), we have had a successful start.

This is what the plot looked like before we dug, and tilled, and hoed, and dug some more.
These are the rows we made for planting, we've added a few more since this picture was taken.  But you can see on the first row that our lettuce came in!  It only took a few days for it to sprout.  

The fenced in garden.  Isn't it great?

Addition to the last post because I remembered...

"Airfort."

Adelynne has been on an airplane so many times in her short life, but now that Amy is 2, buying four plane tickets is a little tough on our non-existent budget. But I was talking to Adelynne and telling her that we were going to go visit our grandma's and grandpas, and she was like, "yeah, we can go to the airfort and ride on a plane!" I told her we were going to drive because it was too much money to go on an airplane. She said, "We can take all the money back and then go to the airfort." It didn't make any sense, and still doesn't, but I thought it was cute that she said it.

"Valentination."

Adelynne received an invitation to a birthday party. She opened it up and exclaimed, "Wow! Its a valentination!" Can you figure out which words she combined? Its pretty easy, and pretty darn cute!
