We have been really busy at our house so these pictures are late.  My mothers day started Friday when Shane came home with a bench for the front yard and a beautiful Japanese maple for the back yard.

On Saturday Marie and I spent some girl time shopping for flowers to finally finish filling in our landscaping.  The rest of the day was spent planting and playing.  It took all day but I would say the garden is done! When the day was done the kids had so much fun they wanted to see pictures, but we hadn’t pulled out the camera.  Marie told me we need to take pictures of special days.  Since we won’t be going many places this year I have made a note of that for the future.

Sunday Marie and I wore matching wrist corsages.  I have never seen her be so reverent during church in my life.  It was cute.  Shane had no meetings and it was so nice to have him help me get ready to go.  It was a beautiful day and I am so grateful for my mother!
