The Best Mother's Day Ever!!! Part 2

This morning Craig told me to stay in bed, in honor of Mother's Day. At that time I thought, "Woo-hoo! You can't get any better than that as far as presents go." I was wrong. About 30 minutes later I heard quite a bit of commotion and then my bedroom door opened, with my three little boys bringing me their favorite foods. I was served breakfast in bed, with Connor giving me a banana, Liam serving the goldfish crackers, and Aidan with the milk (actually the milk was chocolate... I think they got a little input from their daddy on that one :-)). The most thoughtful breakfast I ever had!
After calming down with my excitement of being served breakfast in bed, I noticed that my boys had a special message for me hand painted on their shirts...
Sooo sweet!!! Soooo thoughtful!!! Thank You Boys (and Craig)!!!

Later in the day we had a little Mother's Day party, with my parents, Kelly's family and Adelaide. The weather cooperated so we were able to spend some time outside. Dinner was served in the dining room. I love having a family that needs a 144" table!!!

While the ladies were cleaning up the mess from dinner, ALL the boys were in the family room... With 7 under the age of 7, 2 son-in-laws, and one fun grandpa, it was a pretty loud room. Who knew that being on 'dish duty' could be so relaxing?!? :-)

Picture time... My First Godson, Ben, and I
Kelly with Jack, Drew, Ben and Charlie
Connor, Liam, Aidan and I on my second Mother's Day.
I don't know how this happened, but we didn't get any pictures with my mom :-(.

I know I said this last year, but this truly was the best Mother's Day, ever!!!

Sounds like the whole family had a fantastic Mother's Day! Everyone was sick here...but overall it could have been worse.
