I had a really great Mother's Day weekend a few weeks ago!

It's actually one of my favorite holidays : )

The kids get so excited to find ways to express their love for Me.

I feel like a million bucks with them in my life!

This year I had the pleasure of attending a Mother's Day tea,

during one of Nina's girl scout troop meetings. 

It was seriously, so cute!

The troop leader does a great job every year. 

She certainly knows how to make us Moms feel special!

I sipped on some delicious hot tea, and nibbled on pound cake,

cupcakes, and chocolate covered Oreos that I brought.

I've got a tutorial on how I made the chocolate covered treats.

You can follow this link to my party blog, LAURA'S little PARTY!

On Mother's Day, I was treated to a delightful breakfast in bed!

A pineapple fruit cup, warm & freshly baked cinnamon rolls,

homemade waffles, and hot tea in my favorite mug, hit the spot!

After breakfast, it was time for gifts!!

I was greeted by a lovely wooden sign that had my favorite 

3 little words written on the front!

And I spotted a Tiffany's bag...

Inside my bag, was an amazing blue box.

And inside that box, was a beautiful gift card!

As it turned out, my hubby & daughter went down to the store to

buy me a pair of sunglasses that I've had my eye on.

{no pun intended}

Sadly, the store was out of stock. So they got me a gift card to

put towards the purchase of the sunglasses on my wish list!

I hopped online as soon as I could!

Here are the sunglasses I picked out : )

Later that day, we all went over to my Grandparent's house to celebrate.

My Parents came over, my Aunt & Uncle, and our cousins.

It was really a great time!

While my little guy was napping, my 2 older kids & I had a photo sesh.

This is what happens when my older son holds the camera!

What is it with my kids, and their "camera faces"?!

I love my oldest brat! It's hard to believe that he'll be 19!!

Another great picture with my babies {minus little man}

This was truly my BEST Mother's Day yet!

I'm blessed with such amazing kids, and a wonderful husband!

I've got myself a camera ham!

I adore my kiddos! All 3 of them.

My teenager recently moved out on his own, 

so he isn't here in our morning photo session.

But he does stop by every now & then : )

One Sunday morning, as I'm looking like I just crawled out of bed,

{maybe I did, maybe I didn't}

I had my iPhone in hand, and took advantage of 

the photo opp, with my two youngest.

My kids have always been photogenic. 

{My camera was forever in their faces}

Now that little guy has come along, he too enjoys his time to shine!

Once Jordan noticed his face in the camera, he started putting on a show!

We're all still smiling... Wait for it!

And there he is! My little hammy!

He's on a roll! He really enjoys making all his "camera faces"

Nina & I couldn't help but giggle with each picture we took.

Sometimes he's just too funny!

I wonder where he gets that cheesy smile from...??

Fun in the desert!

Last month, we packed up the trailer, and headed out to ride!

I was really looking forward to some time away from home.

Boy did it feel great to not have any cell service.

I went through Facebook withdrawals, but I survived!

Jordan had the best time exploring, walking, and running.

Here he is on one of his many walk-abouts.

Danny was blowing bubbles for Jordan, and he loved it!!

Jordan had to make sure everything was in good, working condition.

{he just got done watching Daddy do the same thing to his quad!}

It got really hot out there!

But Jordan, and his friend made the best of it by eating a popsicle.

This was Jordan's very 1st popcicle, and he loved it!

He ate it like a pro : )

Here's Jordan doing a little more exploring.

Don't you just love his riding outfit?

Nina invited one of her friends to come along with us.

They had a great time riding around!

We can't wait to go out again!
