Mother's Day Weekend

What a great weekend!  Mom came in on Friday evening to spend the weekend with us.  Early Saturday we headed up to Wichita to meet up with Andy, Libby, Kalo, Mags and the Siggs.  After the River Race, we headed to the zoo.  It was an awesome time!  The weather was perfect, and not crowded at all, since most folks were at the River Festival.  Kalo was SO excited to see Emily - cute!

Mags LOVED the animals!  She got a big kick out of this turtle for some reason.  :)





Dad was finally able to join us Sunday afternoon.  Bruce sure likes his Papa Don!  We had a big group at our house for dinner on Mother's Day - a lot of Gage's family plus mom and dad, plus a few friends - good times!  Emily and Gage snuck out Sunday morning and came back with armloads of fresh flowers, plus some very thoughtful gifts! 


Bruce got to spend some quality time with all of his grandparents over the weekend, which of course he just ate up.  He seems to like to be the center of attention.  :) 


But by the end of the day on Sunday, our poor little boy was awefully tuckered out.  Snuggles with Grandma Betsy while we check out the gardens.

I couldn't have asked for a better mother's day!
