mother's day 2012

kyle delivered on the mother's day gift this year with the precious gift of a new baby.  he can't begin to top that one.  a sweet new baby, a bubbly toddler, and a spunky preschooler make life so much more exciting and fulfilling.  there truly is no greater gift than that of motherhood. that being said, I'd like to report that I have an amazing photo of my babies and I on this mother's day 2012.  fact is, the one picture I do have is nothing short of hideous of myself.  so, no, it is not making the blog.  I can, however, offer up this picture of my amazing mom and her SEVEN grandbabies.  seven in less than four years.  not too shabby huh?

anyone who knows my mom and dad know that they are in their glory. I know I have quite a biased opinion, but who wouldn't be proud of this adorable bunch of towheads?

we celebrated mother's day with a trip to a local park with some of our extended family.  even though we all live relatively close to one another, we don't see each other nearly enough.  it was great to catch up and share a yummy potluck meal together.

one more of the two newborn baby boys. precious.

happy mother's day to all of the great moms out there.
