Mother dear...

I had a great weekend. Saturday was my mom's b-day and she wanted me to spend all day with her and do craft things. Which was kind of a mother's day gift for me as well. Jeremy had Elle all day long, (not one break)I took Eva with me for a little while and then my dad brought her some fun places and then dropped her off back at our house on sat afternoon. Anyway, my dad got my mom a Cricut Expressions for her birthday:

This machine can cut everything, it's amazing. It can even cut through leather! You can buy cartridges that have different layouts and it can cut from 1" up to 23.5"!! Can you believe it?! I played with it all afternoon and into the night, so much fun.

Anyway, we just hung out, watched Grey's ate cake had pizza it was a really fun day with my mom. When I got back home there was a bouquet of gerber daisies (my favorite) in this beautiful vase and the little card was from Eva and Elle (thanks mom). It was really cute, I took pics but their not on the computer yet.

Then Sunday I slept in for a bit but I really needed to nurse Elle! After that Jeremy made breakfast and I went back to sleep till almost 11am! We all got to church and it was a great sacrament meeting. The bishop said some things that really meant a lot to me AND then the primary kids got up and sang some songs and it was my first time having Eva get up and sing! The tears were pouring from my eyes, she was so proud and she knew all the words and she had a giant smile on her face, I was so proud of her. I also participated in this special relief society and had a part as Emma Smith (I know, right, who did the casting on this?) anyway, it was fun and I'm glad I was asked, plus I got to ditch Elle with Jeremy which was totally awesome. And the RS provided muffins, oranges and chocolates (so sweet).

Last night we had a BBQ at my parents house and the food was excellent, of course. Also Jeremy and the girls made me this really cute card with a collage of all their pics, it was really sweet. Now back to the grindstone!

Waht fun times. I agree Bishop did say some great things. It reminded my of Elder Ballards talk from conference. Your a great mom!

I pretty much lose it every time the kids get up and sing! Then I get really mad those times they don't have them sing.
