Mother's Day!

Jeff is always so good at spoiling me for Mother's Day.  

He let me sleep in then I came downstairs to see this cute wall full of loving notes:

And homemade kneaders french toast. The best. mmmm

We went to church and afterwards had a relaxing afternoon together.  We took the boys for a walk.

My heart was full as I watched these boys with their daddy..how can I ever thank my Heavenly Father enough for giving them all to me. 

I am truly so blessed.

Our little Callen took his first steps this weekend.  SO EXCITING and an awesome Mother's Day gift!

Delicious dessert. mmmmm...

Motherhood has changed me. It has stretched every bit of me and is continuing to mold me into the best version of myself. I am so grateful for this opportunity to learn from and grow with these wonderful, amazing boys. 

My sweet West always wants a picture with me:

I love you too, boys. 

With all my heart.

Happy Mother's Day!!

Mother's Day was especially sweet this year.  My boys spoiled me with sleeping in, a delicious breakfast, and  thoughtful gifts.  

I tried to savor every moment with Jeff and my sweet boys before we became a family of 6.  6! Wow. 

 These three boys continually teach me. Being their mom is such a privilege and the best thing I could ever hope to accomplish in this life. I am so grateful for their love, their forgiveness,and their hilarious antics that keep me laughing all day long. I may not be a perfect mom, but I am their mom, and I'm trying to be the best for them that I can.

I can't wait to see what baby #4 brings to our family. But I know one thing is for sure: 

With four boys come four times the love. Lucky me.

Trying to get a photo with these guys is quite the adventure!!

Oh how much my heart just melts for each one of them!!

CA Trip: Mother's Day

We celebrated Mother's Day while we were in CA. It was an awesome day, just a little weird not being with my hubby. We did get to be with my sister & mom, so that made it great!

We skyped with Mckenon for his mother's day call. He's in Portugal serving a mission for our Church. He is doing amazing. His camera wasn't working, so we couldn't see him, but he could see us which was great. He got to 'see' all the kids and they loved saying hi. It was so good to hear his voice and hear him bear his testimony of the Gospel and this incredible work. 

We hung out & played with the kids

 Went for a walk to the playground

 Had fun playing together

and had a delicious dinner and dessert. Trav made dinner while we were outside with the  kiddos. He did his best to make Mother's Day special for all of us, which was super impressive since he was the only guy around! 

After the kiddos went to bed we talked, laughed, opened gifts, and watched a show. 

It was perfect!

I am so blessed to be a mom. Whenever I start feeling like I don't get enough done, or the house is always a mess, or I am not on top of things, I look around and realize that I am doing my best at being a mom. Everything else can fall to pieces as long as I am the best mom I can be. 

These sweet boys are what matter most. And I am so grateful for the things they teach me every single day.

I always dreamed of being a mom and I'm lucky enough to get to live that dream every day with my boys.

Happy Mother's Day!!

Mother's Day

I am so blessed to be a Mom.

Jeff and the boys were so sweet to me this Mother's Day. We combined our Mother's Day/Father's Day/Graduation gifts and here is what we came up with:

Yup, a Bosch and Wheat grinder! We are SO thrilled. Seriously, we are. And believe it or not, Jeff is the one who really really wanted this for Graduation!

So, homemade bread, here we come!!!
