Mother's Day Weekend

For Mother's Day, we headed up to Orange County so I could spend the weekend not only with my boys, but also with MY Mom. :)

As usual, we had a great time playing in the hottub, going to the park, and just relaxing.  Of course, this Mother's Day was especially special for me because I am now the mother of TWO little boys.  I honestly count my blessings everyday and am so overwhelmed with love that these two amazing little beings are mine.  I can't believe I'm lucky enough to be their Mommy.  It's so precious.

And gifts like these are really my most cherished and mean the most.

ADORABLE picture they did at school (with the I Love You Forever quote on the back)

Best card in the world

Spa time!  And I was having fun with my telephoto lens. :)

Love this kid

This one will always be the one who made me a Mommy

My Mom is seriously the nicest, most selfless, caring, generous, thoughtful, patient, and loving woman I know.  She's been like a Mom to many friends over the years, but I get to claim her as my own.
