Mother’s Day 2011

Matt was really sick this year, so I took the kids to Nagymama and Nagypapa’s house on Saturday to spend time with my mom for Mother’s Day and give him a chance to rest.  We had a relaxing day together with the kiddos playing and mom and I had a chance to catch-up.

On Sunday, I woke up to excited voices talking about Mother’s Day and figured out that the kids were making a sign and cards for me.  I was happy to sleep in a little and when I went to the kitchen, Matt was making  my favorite breakfast of cream cheese stuffed French toast.  He also made me a mimosa and was waiting anxiously for a delivery.  Later that day, I received a gorgeous bouquet of 2 dozen roses. 

We ended the day with a fun dinner at the Vig.  Bella was covering her ears because there was a band playing and it was a little intimidating for her.  After awhile, she relaxed and was dancing and having a great time.  It was such a fun night, and I feel so blessed and appreciated.  It was definitely my best Mother’s Day yet.

Easter 2011

We had a wonderful Easter.  The Easter Bunny had left some baskets full of candy and toys for the kids and scattered eggs all over the backyard.  It was so fun to watch Carson and Bella running around trying to find them.

Later that morning Matt took us to a Sunday brunch at a local golf course.  We ate on the deck and then there was an Easter egg hunt on the course.  Bella was crawling around the sand trap trying to get more candy.  It was a fun, relaxing day.

We picked a nice hot day to stay inside and spend some time at the Sealife Aquarium at Arizona Mills Mall.  Carson and Bella absolutely loved seeing all the different sea creatures.

Bella liked the starfish and got to touch one.  Carson especially enjoyed the sharks, crabs and seahorses.

We went to lunch at the Rainforest CafĂ© where Carson asked to sit near the elephants.  Bella wasn’t scared this time and had fun when the animals would come alive.
