Mother's Day

We had a wonderful Mother's Day! We took Bryan's Mom to lunch at McGrath's where she got brave and tried some of Bryans Raw Oysters.

Then we went back to their house for a little bit, then headed to my sweet Grandma Larsens house. I always forget to get pictures there! The kids always look forward to going to her house. Carter was thrilled to find a bunch of snails in her flower bed. After Grandma's house we went to my parents house and made Chicken Kabobs. We are lucky to have so many great moms in our lives!

My mom and I with the kiddos

My mom is the most patient person I know and I strive to be as good of a mother as she is, with my kids. Every time I get mad and yell at my kids, I think of her and how loving and patient she was with us. I don't remember her yelling at us at all, yet I'm sure that wrangling 4 kids was no easy task! Now I appreciate her tenderness and patience even more because I know how hard that is to do! Thanks mom for being such a good example to me!
