mother's day was a lot of fun! we spent the afternoon at the yacht club with pat's brother mike, his wife dena and their kids jackie, trevor, macy and kelvin. the cousins LOVE to be together. they went for a walk on the beach and played and wrestled on the grass (with pat and mike). we sat at the table and laughed and talked for hours! pat and mike are hilarious when they get together. it's always a lot of fun to hear their stories and mike does the best "kip" ever! in fact mike was "kip" before "kip" was "kip"!!!. (hopefully you've seen napoleon dynamite and know who "kip" is!)
after we went to the yacht club we went to patsy's house (pat's mom) and took all of the kids. it had been a while since they had all seen her! we didn't stay too long because the 8 of us wear her out, but we love her so much and we were happy to get to spend some time with her.
the one thing i wanted for mothers day was for all 8 of us to sit and watch a movie together. so, at about 7:30 we all sat and watched "p.s. i love you". boy, what a tear jerker!! I think i cried 4 times!! it's not very often that all of us are home together long enough to sit and watch a movie, so that was my favorite part of the day.
since it was mothers day i cannot end this post without acknowledging my mother and the beautiful person she is. she is a wonderful support to me and to my family. growing up, no matter how bad my day was, i could always count on my mom to be there to talk to me and she is still that way today!!! she is loving, fun, kind, charitable, and a wonderful grandma!! my children love her SO much and are always glad when "grandma's coming to town!" so mom...thank you for always being the mom i needed and for being the mom that i want to be!!!
i love you.
