P.S. My garden and some nice cards!

Wednesday

HAPPY 4th ANNIVERSARY, Jason! I'm so thankful for my husband. He is so patient and kind and thoughtful and generous and he never gets upset.

Mom and Dad came for a visit over Memorial Day! They gave us a WELCOME mat and the curtain rod and a beautiful tea set from Taiwan!



As suggested by Dad and Mom, we got a bathroom mat and a bathroom trash basket at the Dollar Store.

Friday Pictures...

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND! Just a couple of pictures for all of you!

We saw this vehicle in Lapeer a few days ago. HUGE WHEELS, eh?

Jason posed on the bus during a JV outing, so the kids gave him the picture on Sunday.

We are looking forward to going with WHITES to Chicago this weekend and then being with Mom and Dad over Memorial Day!!! We can't wait for them to see the house! Our little garden has seedlings!!!! How fun!

Flowers....

The Lapeer East choir gave me flowers for accompanying their spring concert! They are beautiful, don't you think? Jason received the pink rose for turning my pages. (Ha!)

We enjoyed having our friend over for lunch on Friday. He's helping at the office this summer. I snapped a few pictures of a frosted angel food cake and the table with Grandma Schmitt's dishes.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

Mom…
Thank you so much for being such a loving, thoughtful, kind, generous, encouraging, and hard working Mom!

Thank you so much for continually demonstrating to us what it means to sacrificially give of your time and gifts and love.

Thank you for all the times you put others before yourself. Thank you for all that you do to encourage us each day!

We love you so much! We wish we could be with you tomorrow!

Not our typical Saturday....

We were really looking forward to this weekend, especially since Jason had a really busy week... township board meeting Tuesday night, 6AM Business meeting Wednesday morning, and late nights at work both Wednesday and Thursday!

Friday night finally came so we decided our yard needed to be mowed! Jason did a great job, but had to detour around a mother kill deer bird who wouldn't budge from her eggs that were laid right in the middle of the lawn. She was one mean bird -- if we got to close to her, she would flare her wings and scream! She scared the living day lights out of us a few times! I definately am not wishing her a happy mother's day! As Jason was mowing, I was cleaning up the multch area and as I was poking around and moving dirt, I scraped a hard piece of "rock" that jumped out at me! I screamed so loudly that the whole neighborhood heard and Jason stopped mowing... all for a TOAD!!!

Saturday we had the memorizing competition winners over for a musical cookie & ice-cream. We enjoyed playing with them!

Then we got some of our furniture! Notice the beautiful dishes that are displayed for the first time since we were married! It only took us four years to do it... not bad, eh?

Have a great MOTHER'S DAY! We really love our MOM!!!!

Sunday School

We had fun in Sunday School decorating the Peeps (in memory of the baker who died in Genesis 40.)
