i must of been busy because i didn't take very many pictures this month but i love that on mothers day i took a whole bunch and so here is what my wonderful family did for me on mothers day this year...
kent paid our bills. i love this about kent-he is such a hard worker: he has always made things work out, he has sometimes worked 2 or 3 jobs at a time and has done work he has not enjoyed at all and i so appreciate this. somebody recently said it must be hard having him gone all the time and i said yeah, but i know he does that for me- so i can stay home...so in that way it's actually such a blessing.

brooke washed my dishes for me...she had to put on her apron like i wear at school-brooke is a busy body, she reminds me of myself alot in this way, always needing something to do.

kelsi paid her tithing...what a good example and kelsi is in so many ways-it makes me crazy happy that at this point in her life she does so many good things on her own. also notice that cute little red phone...that is her new favorite accessory!

koy was coming back from sister campbells...the kids go over and get gum from her. when he got to me he gave me half of his gum and said "happy mothers day". koy always walks around with a big smile---he brings me joy!

kaden read a book...his favorite sunday activity. i love to see kadens complete love for reading and that he shares all his favorite books with me. his favorite book at the moment is "candy shop war".

i also got a ninja smoothie maker...we actually had to buy another one since then so kent can bring his own to work and not steal mine. kent makes the best smoothies-mmm mmm good!

what a totally fantastic mothers day...i really do love love love to be a mom-thanks everyone!
kelsi was inducted into the national junior honor society, this is her best friend mikyla...a funny little story when kelsi received the letter of invitation: she said "if it means more homework- i don't want to do it"

we were able to go to our cousin ashleys birthday party at their pool house-the kids had so much fun, they love to swim. this is how brooke plugs her nose as she swims...it is so funny and actually not too many people can do it-silly!

and at the end of the month brooke celebrated her 7th birthday...we went to the nature park for lunch-it totally rained but our friends stayed and we enjoyed listening to the rain hit the picnic shelter and the kids still played until they were soaked-

koy and connor were cracking us all up as they shot water from the water fountain at each other and blocked it with the umbrella-

brooke probably got the best present that she could ever hope for this year--- she learned how to do her backhand spring by herself. she did them all day long until her arms gave out-
