Mother's Day & Andy's B-day

   Mother's Day was made lovely by my cute family!
Late at night, after I had gone to bed with Ben, they painted this sign and hung it up...


Apparently, Josh was not around when that happened so he wrote this poem for me to find...
Isn't he cute?

I took the older kids out to visit with my fam on the deck in Young Ward...



                                                 

We kept our distance in this pic.
Just missing Ang...

For Andy's Birthday he wanted to take the kids for a hike but it was a really warm day so instead, we all went to the Institute building and played pickleball!

Give this boy a ball and he is a happy man!
                                                
                                                
The person not playing pickle ball rolled another ball back and forth with Ben.  We rotated through so we all got a turn with everything.

                                           







Because Abby went barefoot she ended up with super dirty feet :(



Cleaning up the feet...

Then back home for cake and presents...


A backpack that he had picked out for himself...

Some Theodore Roosevelt books...
                                                


                                               
                                                                                                                                                         And the one surprise I had for him...a gong!
Weeks earlier we had joked about getting a "Gathering Gong" to round up our family for prayer, scripture study and meals.  He acted halfway serious about it so I bought one :)    
          He was surprised and seemed genuinely pleased.                  
                                                      
Love this guy of mine!
