A Day of Motherly Love

What's not to love about a day dedicated to mothers? A special day to say 'thank you' to the women who gave us life, cleaned up our innumerable messes, went days/weeks/months/years with little sleep, and continue to stand by us, without question, as we navigate life's unpredictable journey. Mother's tend to be a little crazy, and rightfully so. I believe that with each child, we lose a little bit of our minds; but, we gain an even greater piece of our hearts.

I had a very special Mother's Day. We took a relaxing walk as a family and watched the carp swim around in the water.

Belle ventured out to try and catch one; but, came back as soon as the water got too deep.

After peeing his pants and falling in the mud, Kayson decided to take a break to contemplate his next disaster. 

So he decided to try and wash off in the lake. 

My beautiful baby girl. 

After the lake, we attended family bbq at Ev's parents' house. 


A few of my favorite moms! 


Make-up with Meme is always enjoyable.

A tower of children. 

But, the tower was not match for the power of Pixie, and quickly toppled to the ground.
