Mother's Day Weekend

I’ve done no blogging this summer. ( I'm actually finishing writing this on 8/15) Now I have one week of summer break left and then it’s back to school for all of us. And back to work for Andrew! We have been blessed with wonderful memories of this summer. I’m going to dive right in and get caught up.

May was busy with Mother’s Day activities, end of year school fun and more.
The kids’ school hosted “Muffins with Mom” on the Friday before Mother’s Day. I made the rounds and tasted several treats. In each class they had made a different gift, so I ended up with a nice collection of photos, poems, and a plaster handprint too!











That Saturday Andrew ( with Knox in the stroller) and I ran the Lovejoy 5k up at the high school. Vicki joined us to keep up with the girls while we ran. Afterwards, we enjoyed a sausage and pancake breakfast.

On Sunday we went to Grapevine to ride the Vintage Railroad. Mothers rode for free! It was a great adventure. Dad and Trish rode with us. We went from Grapevine to the Ft Worth Stockyards. We had about 2 hours there to eat a late lunch and explore. Then it was back on the train for the return trip to Grapevine. We saw a mock train robbery and we watched the longhorns walk thru the stockyards .

It was a wonderfully memorable Mom’s Day wknd. Thanks family!
