Happy Mother's Day!!

Happy Mother's Day - to our mothers, grandmothers and friends! We owe a lot to all the Mothers around, I especially know how much work a Mom puts into a day now! We both appreciate all that was done for us growing up, especially now that we have first hand experience. We love you all very much!!!
Lex definitely made today special for me! He took on all the typical Mom duties for the day (cleaning, cooking, diaper changes, playtime, bathtime, bedtime, etc, etc.) and took it to the next level. He planned out a gourmet, restaurant quality meal for breakfast, lunch & dinner - which meant a ton of kitchen cleanup too!
Here's the menu:
Breakfast - Paula Dean's: Spinach & Bacon Quiche - A+
Lunch - Carribean Grilled Chicken Salad - A+
Dinner - Grilled Salmon, Mini Grilled Portabello Mushrooms, Wild Rice & Salad - A+
Dessert (not pictured) - Strawberry Shortcake - A+
Wow - we are stuffed! Thank you hubby, you are the best!
In the afternoon, I headed out to do some shopping - just for me! And Lex & Katelyn hung out and tested out her new swimming pool! It's an alligator that has 2 slides. She apparently wasn't too interested in the sliding part, she just ran around in the water and splashed around a lot.
I hope everyone's Mothers Day was fabulous! Mine sure was, thanks to the best family in the world!
