• I caught Bodee and Emers playing the iPad this week. My favorite part of this picture is that both of their tummies are sticking out. They look like little old men with their guts hanging out:)

• On Saturday was the annual Riverview 5k. I couldn't run this year since I'm on the executive board I had to help run it. Brynn had a soccer game right after the 5k Fun Run so her and Bodee ran that and then Todd took her over to her soccer game.

• Addy actually ran the 5k by herself! She ran along side friends but neither Todd nor I were there to help her along. I was so proud of her for pushing herself to finish! So sad I didn't get a picture of her finishing!
• Sunday was Mother's Day! I woke up to breakfast in bed, some adorable posters, and lots of pictures and cards. I seriously have the sweetest kiddos ever! Todd even got me beautiful flowers and a knife set. (I've been wanting one forever!) 
• I am so grateful to be a mother to three amazing children. Sometimes I can't believe Heavenly Father trusts me to raise these kids but I do know being a mother is the most important job I can have so I will continue to do my best and raise my children in righteousness. Todd and kids really made my day!

• A huge highlight of the week is that Aunt Sarah and Uncle Gary came to visit! Sarah's dear friend got married so we were lucky enough to spend time with them between wedding events! Friday we went out to dinner at Cafe Rio and then had a rockin' dance party back at our house. Saturday was the wedding but Sari and Gary were nice enough to cheer Brynn on at her soccer game. On Sunday we have lunch after church, hung out for the day and then went to watch Mr. Sherman and Peabody.
• My favorite quote of the weekend was when Bodee told Gary "You have to share your drink" and proceeded to take Gary's drink from him and helped himself. At least he's learned to use the sharing concept when it's convenient for him:)

• This monster was at the movie theater and the kids thought it was so cool...or gross.
