Makes Me Happy

I am probably happiest when I am at the beach with my family! I can't get enough of the sound, the smell, the shells, the sun, my kids excitement....all of it! I love it! I spent 2 days at the beach and feel SOOO refreshed! (and a tad bit fried on the shoulders....failed me again spf 30!!!)

My mother's day was AMAZING! I received a HUGE balloon that sings "you are my sunshine" that my son picked out (and I have wanted to pop it ever since due to the CONSTANT singing when my kids tap on it!), a SUPER cute frame my daughter made at school with a handmade card (my fave kind), a cake that said happy mothers day...............and a day where I didn't lift a finger! I even got to take a nap on the beach under the umbrella and took a jog alone on the beach! THAT BEATS OUT ANY KIND OF GIFT ALONE! It was GREAT! I could tell my kids were excited to help out and kept picking EVERY single flower that they could find to bring to me on my special day. I truly felt amazing and loved!

My husband's family is staying at the beach all week. (about an hour and a half from our house) The plan as of now is that we are bringing the kids to stay there for the next two nights....and then my husband and I will return on Thursday and Friday. I am VERY excited about being able to sew and screen print my little heart out on my MUCH needed "day off", but I am also a bit nervous as to how my kids will act at bed time and being away for 2 nights. KEEP YOUR FINGERS CROSSED!!!!!

Here are some pictures we took on Mother's day. I realized as the sun was going down that we had been at the beach ALL day without any pictures! See, when mom is having a "day off from all duties" pictures just don't get taken. :)This was taken by Kacey. I seriously think she takes amazing pics!!! (please take note of Collin's Diego in EVERY picture with him)

My little sunshine! She has a blue chin after eating VERY blue ice cream! ha!

Good luck trying to get a good family pic after 2 scoops of ice cream and a full day at the beach.

These two make my world a better place!!!!! EVERY day is brighter with them! They are the reason that I am able to celebrate such an AMAZING mother's day!
