Mother's Day - 2010

This was a wonderful mother's day to have Charity come for the weekend and spend the day with Charity and Nate/family. Charity and Nate made a delicious dinner. Charity put together the menu and Nate did the grocery shopping.

While Charity and Nate were cooking dinner, I was able to play with the kids and take a few pictures. Little Elijah seems pretty close to crawling. He's really good at rolling around and scooting backwards!

Adalei was playing in the bassinet and Elijah wanted in. His smile was so cute that I couldn't resist taking a picture of the two of them having fun together.

The dinner menu was Parmesan chicken, broccoli, potatoes, fruit salad, and chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter filling and chocolate icing. Nate made the cupcakes himself. The entire meal was very delicious!

Oh, we also had Misty's favorite ice cream along with the cupcakes. Here's a picture of the delicious cupcakes.

This is Brielle's favorite spot to sit (above) - on Nate's shoulders! I don't think I've ever been at their house and her not spend time in her favorite spot!

Here's a group picture below!

Nate/family gave me the beautiful red roses and a photo collage with cute pictures. Jason and Ashley gave me this cupcake pan and the silicone cupcake holders. I'm really excited to use them!

Charity is always so good to me - in addition to visiting for the weekend, she gave me these two cute shirts, a beautiful necklace/ear ring set, a bracelet from Greece, my favorite taffy from the Salt Lake, and these lovely flowers - some of my favorites! Charity also cleaned my bathroom and vacuumed the entire upstairs. She was so helpful!

I also got a cute card and picture from Casey/Jenna & boys. I really enjoyed video conferencing with them as well.

It was a wonderful mother's day weekend and I enjoyed it very much. I am sure blessed with four awesome children, my wonderful daughters in law and seven adorable grandchildren.
