Mother's Day

Mother's Day this year was great!!!  We started off by heading to church.  I asked the boys to dress in something nice, not sweats and
 
AJ picked out a shirt and tie - he looks so handsome!!

 
The boys and I on Mother's day.  When David asked Michael what they should get me for Mother's day he said "What she wants"  David asked well what does she want.  He said love and big hug - so this is his big hug for me!!!
 
Then we went home to change and we were going to head to the dinosaur park for a little while.  Well while I was putting things in the car the boys were messing around and broke the glass on the bathroom door.  Well it is not that it just broke, it fell on Michael's hand and his hand was stuck between two big pieces of glass.  One cut was so bad it needed stitches.  Luckily we have a FANTASTIC friend who is a nurse and he had some of the glue they use instead of stitches and we didn't have to spend hours in the ER. 
 
 
You can see the glue on the pinkie and he has cuts on both hands.  He is a trooper though and we headed to the dinosaur park with band aids on many fingers and a lesson hopefully learned for the boys after the many, many warnings of not playing with the bathroom door.
 
 
The boys acting silly

 
Loving brothers - they are too sweet!!!
 
The kids were so excited to head into the dinosaur park.  The bad part of the deal was that as soon as we got in there it started to pour down rain, I mean really pour.  So we had to turn around and change plans.  I had promised Michael ice cream since he was so brave with his hand, and we didn't get it there so off to the commissary we went to get ice cream. 
 
We then headed over to Victor and Porchea's house where the boys were going to make us dinner. 
 
 
You have to wonder what he is thinking right there.  :-)  The boys did all of the work in the kitchen while we girls relaxed, had a glass of wine, and played Phase 10 with a Twist.  We had so much fun giggling and laughing!!!  I think the boys were having fun in the kitchen too.  They were very creative with the dinner. 
 

 
This is one of the desserts that they made.  The red bowl is made out of chocolate so everything is edible on this plate.  David asked his Captain to make them and they were delicious!!!  They even cut out heart and star shapes out of the pineapple!!

 
Here they were trying to get our attention to tell us dinner was ready.  We were too busy talking, but finally headed in.

 
Out dinner - doesn't it look wonderful?!?  The plate in the middle on the right was all chocolate covered fruit and it was delicious!!!  I enjoyed everything about this meal, especially that I didn't have to cook or clean!!  It was FANTASTIC!!!

 
The four of us sitting down and eating and yes there are no children here - they ate their food before us so we could have a quiet, hot dinner.  :-)  It was a day full of smiles and laughter, just what I LOVE!!!  Thank you my wonderful husband and Victor for making it such a great Mother's day!!!
