Happy Mother's Day!

We had the best Mother's Day ever! It started with church, where Sarah was just so wonderful, I discovered that you can print off pages to color from the new Friend's website, so I printed a few and Sarah loved just coloring, which allowed Creed and I to enjoy the messages given during Sacrament meeting. When we got home from church I noticed that my parents had been trying to get a hold of me. So I called them back and they said, "Surprise, we will be at your house in like ten minutes!" WAHOOO! It was so good to see them and to show them around for a little while. It was great to chat and celebrate Motherhood for a little while. Later that day we set up an iChat and talked with all of the Larsen's (minus Eric and Kendra, we couldn't get a hold of you!). It was really great, though it made Creed and I a little Utah sick. Then Creed and Sarah gave me my gifts, socks from Sarah (Creed said he asked her what she wanted to get for Mommy and she yelled, SOCKS!) and a new hand mixer (Chad broke my other one). I just loved my gifts. Oh, and Creed also got me 90 lbs of dehydrated potatoes. He found a website that was giving away free shipping and he got 20% off too. So now we have our year supply of potatoes! That makes me excited too! I am just so thankful for such a wonderful husband who helps me to be the Mom that I want to be. Creed is just amazing. I am also really thankful for such a wonderful daughter who loves me and enjoys being with me. WAHOO for Family!

The only sad part of Mother's Day was finding out that one of my bestest of friends, Kiersten Metcalfe, spent her Mother's Day in the ER because she had had a migrane for four days straight. Now she is scheduled to have her second open heart surgery this year on Friday. What is really sad is that we aren't there to help, or to support them. So if everyone could just pray for her and her little family that would be great!

Now I would post some pictures, but somewhere in the move we have misplaced the cord that connects the camera to our computer. I am bummed as I am sure so are the rest of you!

Oh, and I wanted to mention that for the month of May I am giving 10% of any order for Close to My Heart. You can look at the new Idea Book at sharesa.myctmh.com and then call or email me your order. Just email me for more details. So spread the word. Also if you go to Jeanette Lynton's blog, she is doing a give-away of Close to My Heart stuff. So check it out!
