Mother's Day 2012

This Mother's Day we went to Houston to celebrate and see family.  We drove down through a ton of rain on Friday afternoon/evening.  Once we arrived in Houston we were wiped out!  On Saturday, we went to lunch and did some shopping with Grandma Mike.  That evening, we went to dinner with Aunt Kim, Uncle Jeff, Cooper, Jackson, and Brady.  After dinner we all went back to Grandma Mike's house for some more quality family time.  On Sunday, mom and I went to church and then we picked up Kim and the three of us went to visit Grandma's burial site.  Later that day the Lee's came back to Grandma Mike's house.  Uncle Jeff and Jason played baseball with the kids while Kim, Mom, and I make Grandma's German potato salad, a cake, and fruit salad.  The men grilled brats and hotdogs on the grill after baseball.  We all hung out and had a great time.  I'm so thankful for my mom, my mother-in-law, my sister and sister-in-law for making me an aunt, and for my sweet Lexi who calls me mom.  I love you all!

Day 8

Sometimes when life seems hard, sad, or stressful, I like to just stop for a moment and find something happy or peaceful. This evening, Lexi and I were driving home and we noticed the beautiful sunset. I stopped so we could take a picture on my phone. When I look at the sky and it looks like this, it makes me think of the loved ones we have lost and are now in Heaven. Instead of feeling sadness, I feel comfort they are in their forever home in the arms of Jesus. I'm thankful to have to ability to remember and the faith to feel comfort. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

Day 12

Today I am thankful for Apple.  Apple makes great technology.  Jason has been in Canada for almost a week and because of our iPads we were able to facetime with him!  Lexi gets a little shy when the conversation begins, but she quickly warms up and loves to talk and kiss him.  We love and miss him so much when he is traveling.  We are looking forward to the summer when he is home with us for a couple of months straight!!

kindergarten boxcar parade

Well, everyone was healthy until Lexi got the flu and I got pneumonia.  Needless to say, it's been a rough week...BUT, we are better again and for the most part back to normal.  Jason, Lexi and I all worked together on this and we think it turned out great!  All the boxcars were unique and wonderful!  The parade was wonderful...it should have been televised!!
