Happy Mother's Day!

Oh, I love my precious daughters!

Happy Mother's Day to all you wonderful mothers out there! I want to say a big "I Love You!" to my mom. When people tell me I'm like my mom, it makes me proud.

We had a wonderful day yesterday! The girls let me sleep in until 7:30. Then I got cards and a hanging flower basket. Mira made me a drawing at school, complete with a real necklace on it. And her teacher filled out a sheet with questions about me that Mira answered. It was so cute!

We spent the day at Grandma Adeline's house. It was a full house this year! So many people came to celebrate. It was fun seeing all the kids play together (and there were a lot of little kids!), and I got to talk with so many family members that I don't see as often as I'd like.

Then we visited Chris' mom on the way home to wish her a happy Mother's Day. It was a very fun day!

Here is a group photo of all the moms and some of the kids yesterday:
My sister Kelly, Grandma Adeline, and me:
Me and my sister, finally back from Australia!:
Sadly, I didn't think to get a photo of me and my mom! I'll have to do that when she and my dad are up in a couple weeks.

There are many more photos from the day at: http://share.shutterfly.com/share/received/welcome.sfly?fid=544ab301579b3005&sid=2Jat2zdqxfR

I loved the answers Mira gave on the "Mommy Sheet"! All your pictures of the day were great! I added up all the people that were at Moms and I came up with 66! Anybody have a different number? Thanks for the beautiful hanging basket...love it! Great Mothers Day!!!!

It was fun to get together where we could be out on the lawn. When we got home, I too counted 66 bodies. Mom and Dad really started a big tribe! Love, Margene
