Talk about a slam dunk Mother’s Day this year! After an incredible breakfast in bed, the kids nailed the Mother’s Day program at church — that my mom put together.  It was a win-win all around.  Pippi even got the “My part is little…and so am I.  All I get to say is Bye-Bye.”  She was a wild card up on the stand, but she did an awesome job!

Honestly - have I ever said how lucky we all are to live with my mom!
I’m glad there is one day each year that we get to celebrate her.

Have I ever said how lucky my kids are to live with me?
I have over and over — and I think I’m still trying to convince my weasels.

After church, my mom and Trilby and I all sat on the couch with our feet up.
I can literally say, that out of every view on earth — from the Swiss Alps, to the ocean sunsets…this is my favorite view.
I can see the tips of my feet that are propped on the coffee table, while all of my loved ones are slaving away for me in the distance.

Unfortunately, the Brockbanks were out of town, so Micah was on his own.
Here is Micah’s list of coordinating the most amazing meal EVER!

It was Beef Tenderloin with Bearnaise sauce, roasted rosemary potatoes, artichokes, chocolate covered strawberries, and a homemade peach crumble.  (Might I note — these weren’t canned peaches!)
My husband put it all together, as if it was a symphony on it’s grandest day — with NO MISTAKES!

The kids pitched in where they could — (props to the sous chef - Skylar), and created a beautiful table for us!
It was delicious!  AMAZING!  Happy Mother’s Day to me!  And a special thanks to Micah for becoming the Mother’s Day guru!
