Our plan for yesterday was to head out to Andy's parents' house to celebrate Mother's Day with the family. It seems every time we make these plans, the weather never seems to cooperate, so we were even more excited that the sun was shining!! Andy's folks have a terrific backyard which was central to yesterday's festivities.
I spent much of the time sitting in the sun watching the various activities that were taking place. Andy playing ladder golf with anyone brave enough to compete against him (ok, really just anyone willing to play with him, ha!), Drew and Nick were showing off some mad lacrosse skills, Sam and Davey were running around coming up with new ways to entertain themselves, and little Kurt found that cheering everyone on made him quite content. Liddy of course was in the middle of all of the action trying to figure out which ball to chase and will now be thoroughly zonked out for the next week!
Watching all the nephews running around and playing with each other got us even more excited about our little boy that will be joining their ranks soon enough! I'm not sure a little girl would stand a chance against all those boys!!
In addition to great backyard fun, we also got to enjoy a great dinner of grilled chicken, salad from the garden, Italian sausages, potato salad and really great corn on the cob! My father-in-law also made a great cake that my brother-in-law Mark helped to decorate. It was a great way to wrap up a wonderful Mother's Day meal.
I hope all the moms (and moms to be) out there had a great day! You all deserve it!
