Happy Mother's Day to Me!

Happy Mothers Day to me! This is the art that our children made for me! It is the precious gift I could have other than the house and yard cleaned! Yahoo for me! I got it all! :) I kept this art up for a month. It shows their hand prints and it makes me sad that every year they keep growing! Our children are the BEST kids ever! Their little souls are in tune! I'm so grateful and overwhelmed that Heavenly Father allowed me to be a mother. It is by far the BEST and challenging position ever!

The beautiful dozen of roses from Bryce. I am the LUCKIEST girl in the world! I have the bestest ( Ashton's word) friend and husband! Not because he bought me flowers but, it's the everyday stuff. Thank you Bryce! Lucky, lucky me! Cole too, bought me a dozen of roses. Awe! I was spoiled!

YOUR 11! 24/7

Our sweet little man! Sad,sad sad he is growing up!

Bryce's bestest buddy right here!

We celebrate birthday's every other year. It was Cole's time to celebrate and he didn't want a party. : / He said he would rather have the money to save. What? Well, we gave him the money and surprised him with inviting all couple of his friends to go see the ULTIMATE MOTOR SUPERCROSS show at Rice Eccles stadium. WE took the kids to Red Robin before the show. Holy moly I could not believe how many people are really into riding. It was really cool.

Westcott ladies for pedicures

This is the only picture that I got of us. We try to get together every 3 months either for a pedicure, lunch or both. We were missing a couple of us. But, we had a great time. We went the day before Easter ...had pedi's and went to Zupas! A very yummy local restaurant. I love these ladies! It is refreshing to get together and catch up.
