Mother's Day 2010

Mother's Day Gifts.... of course the best gift was sharing time with family. Grandma, Grandpa, and Aunt Mary came out on Thursday. Chris and Steph arrived on Saturday and Annie and Shotzie got here Sunday and are staying till Tuesday.
Mike and Meg coudn't make the trip, but Patrick did invite me to his soccer game on Saturday: "Are you available to come to my soccer game?"
Lots of love and laughs were shared, not to mention wonderful food!
