Mom Events...a post with too many parentheses

Mother's day has come and gone.  I was really sick.  We took Jason's mom out on Friday before and gave her a gift and cards from the girls.  Saturday night my siblings (one brother even flew in from CA) all went out to dinner for my mom's birthday. (How much of a bummer would it be to have your birthday and mother's day this close?)  Then we had everyone at our house afterwards for cake and ice cream.  It was great to catch up with Danny and sit at a round table with my sibs!  More restaurants should have round tables for large parties, I say!

Once again, due to corsage fundraising, I couldn't go to our ward on Mother's day.  Considering my feelings about the mother's day songs (Will someone with talent please write a new, good one?) from the primary songbook it may not be a bad thing.  We went up the canyon instead and saw Eliza's favorite thing in the entire world: a waterfall.

That night, the girls gave me the presents I had picked up for myself and cards they made with Jason's help.  My mom was nice enough to come over to my house as I wore jammies and I gave her a gift and cards from the girls.  My silhouette got a great workout this weekend and I loved giving homemade cards to the moms.
