Happy Mother's Day!!

Happy Mother's Day!!  I love celebrating mothers.  I have a few great mothers in my life.  I love hosting parties and holidays.  I love having company.  Luckily, so does Jason.

Anyway, mother's day is a holiday I can dress up.  I can make it my own, but I can't this year.  This year, I have to leave for travel.  I didn't realize when I booked my training for work I would be leaving on mother's day.  Darn it.  Oh well...I was dreading it until...

THIS BECAME THE BEST MOTHER'S DAY EVER!!  I consider myself a pretty creative person.  And I love getting home-made gifts.  Handprints/footprints are my favorite.  I always bug Jason to do something crafty with the boys instead of buying or getting me something.  He always tries - things just never go his way it seems.  He got in luck this year - the school helped him!!!  Each boy did something different.  I love each of their gifts so much!!

Colton:
Colton's teacher painted a flower pot pink and put his thumb print all over the base.  She then made the thumb prints into little lady bugs!  It says:  Colton Mother's Day 2012.  I love it!!

Tyler:
Tyler picked out a color and painted a vase.  He picked out one of my favorite colors!!  I love pink!!  He did such a great job!  It says:  Happy Mother's Day 2012 Love, Tyler.  I love it!!

Andrew:
Andrew made a jewelry box with ladybug fingerprints!  I love it!!  He is so proud of it!  I can't wait to start using it!

From all the boys:
Jason got a necklace with each boy initial.  Their birthday is on each initial.  I didn't get a close up of it, but I'm wearing it in all the pictures.
