My First Mother's Day

My Mother's Day weekend celebration was amazing! I must start by saying what an amazing husband I have and how I am so lucky to have him in my life! I love Ammon so much! More every day! Also, all of my family who helped me to have a wonderful first Mother's Day.

Our celebration started off with a campout to Spring Lake with the Powells! We had such a blast!




Saturday morning we went fishing before driving home. Because the adults didn't have fishing licenses, just Powell kids fished. Unfortunately, no fish were biting.

When Ammon and I got home, we cleaned up then Ammon took me out to a late lunch to Flat Top Grill - one of our favorite restaurants! It's a stir fry restaurant. Ammon gave me a beautiful necklace.




That evening we worked in the garden. Ammon tilled the whole garden, then together we marked off all of the walking paths. We were going to transplant our broccoli and cabbage, but ran out of day light.




Sunday, after church, Ammon made me very delicious fajitas for lunch. Then we went over to the Powell's house for dinner where Kendall and Ammon cooked us all dinner. We had a fun time! After dinner, Ammon surprised me with a peach pie from a local bakery. A couple of weeks ago, I told Ammon that it's too bad peaches aren't in season because I'd love a homemade peach pie for Mother's Day. Ammon remembered that and searched for a fresh peach pie, which he said was hard to find! Mmmmm Mmmm. It was so good! And what a sweet man to remember and find me a peach pie! I love you Ammon!

Melissa and the Powell family gave me a beautiful framed collage picture of what makes me a mother. It has a picture of our family of 4, Carter's footprints, Tanner's footprints and a quote on infant death by Joseph Smith. It was so sweet of her, I love it!

To top it all off, Ammon gave me a very sweet card. I also received cards in the mail from my family and phone calls! This weekend was full of so much family and love. Thank you everyone, especially my dear husband, love of my life, Ammon.
