Mother's Day 5-11-14

So we planned all weekend and it finally happened! The perfect little Mother's day Garden Party in our backyard. We spent Mother's day in our backyard last year too and it worked so well we did it again! We had veggie and chicken kabobs and four different kinds of salads. Dustin was the perfect grill master as he cooked up everyone's kabobs.
 
Here is one of my youngest niece I just can't pass up sharing with you all....
I think she had four pieces...maybe more?
 
My nieces and nephew played around the garden and ran around the backyard. The weather was perfect not too hot, not too chilly. The sun shown a golden hue over everything, lighting up all the happy faces of the people I love. I really didn't spend much time taking pictures. I was more interested in memorizing the moment off all the happy life going on in our backyard. We are so very blessed to have all this loving family within 30 minutes of us as well as all the other family who may be far away but close in our hearts. Sometimes it is so easy to take family for granted because they seem to always be there, but honestly you just really never know how long you have so taking the time to treasure them while you have them should be a top priority.
 
Happy Mother's Day to all the lovely moms in our family!
 
 My sweet Mom up there in the white, has been a beautiful example of love, strength, tenderness towards all life and has instilled many other wonderful attributes into my sister and I. I celebrate this sweet woman every day but it is fun to have a day that gives us an excuse to spoil her a bit. :-) Love you Momma and hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day!
