Mother's Day

Mother's Day was more than just one day for me...it was a whole weekend! It started with a one hour full body massage at Massage Envy....how nice and indulgent! LOVED IT! That afternoon (Saturday) we headed to Joe's parents' place. Whitney, Sandy, and I attended a Mother/Daughter banquet sponsored by the church. It was a very nice dinner..they definitely served us well! Whitney really enjoyed playing with her cousin Reese (his stepbrother Jeff's daughter). They are both the same age and always have a great time.



We spent the night at Joe's parents' place and Sunday morning, Sandy and Charlie took Whitney to church while Joe and I slept in. Apparently Whitney was very helpful at church passing out chocolates and flowers to all the Mothers.

After church, we all (our family, Sandy and Charlie, and Reese,Tyler, Christa and Jeff) went to Knoebel's amusement park. It was a GREAT day outside....not too hot, not too cool and the kids had a great time!





To top it ALL off---Joe and um, Whitney got me a BEAUTIFUL diamond and peridot ring for Mother's Day! It is round and has the peridot in the middle and tiny diamonds all around the stone and down the band. GORGEOUS!!!!! I picked it out a while back, but never thought I would actually be treated with such a gift. Thank you, honey! I must be a great wife and mother ;)
Actually, I must be REALLY good, b/c I got TWO cards from Blaine! WOW! I'm on a roll!
