We had another great mothers day at the Tapatio!!! Always so relaxing for mommy & daddy and the kids have sooooo much fun going down the big slide and swimming!! The Penrod Family joined us this year which made it extra fun!! We spent Saturday afternoon at the pool and then went to Aunt Chiladas for dinner .. yumyum ... and then got a whole nother day by the pool on Sunday!! (mommy was in heaven)!
Rilyn & Daddy sun bathin' and chattin' about somethin!!
LOVE these kiddos and feel so lucky & blessed to be their Momma!!
All spiffed up and ready for dinner!!
GRANDMA & GRAMMY DAY!!
We decided to do a Mothers Day picnic at the park with our Momma's to celebrate their special day!! I wanted to do an extra special picnic and not just our normal meet at the park and let the kids run around ... so I decided to do a whole set up with decor and all!! Lord knows they deserve it .. we don't know what we would do without these two amazing ladies in our life!!
I brought some random crates that I had in my craft stuff along with some scrap pieces of fabric to set up as tables to display the food, plates, etc.. ... and made homemade chicken salad (my grandmas recipe, DA BOMB), pasta salad and some fresh fruit for dinner. We found a shady spot close to the lake and waterfall and walaaaa ... we had our special picnic!! Rilyn and I were able to get there early and have everything set up prior to their arrival so they were pleasantly surprised!!
Earlier that week, the kids and I went to "As You Wish" and painted each of them a special platter as part of their gift and then I made them a few things to go with it. Add a homemade card signed by the whole family and some fresh flowers in a mason jar!
So happy with the way the platters turned out!! The outside edge reads "we are lucky as can bee ... the best Grandma/Grammy in the world belongs to me" the kids handprints for flowers, thumbprints for bumble bees, and pinky prints for the caterpillar!! The best part is the kids pretty much painted them by themselves - I obviously did the words and helped with the hand & fingerprints but thats about it!! (they LOVED them!!)
We LOVE our Grandma and Grammy so so so much!!!
Of course, Daddy found a fishing pole in the back of the truck and got some fishing in while we were there!!
We brought scooters and Rilyn just rode and rode and rode her little heart out!! She is getting so good on her scooter and was hitting some top speeds coming down the hill!! All we could do was watch and hope for the best with teeth clenched!!! She did eventually have a pretty good bail but jumped up and got back on after some tlc from daddy!!
My Momma got me this awesome sign for my garden and the most beautiful card that of course made me cry!! I am just slightly obsessed with my new garden and this baby is going to add a perfect little touch to it!! Cant wait to hang it up.
PICTURE PERFECT!!
(I couldn't get my camera and sneak up on them quick enough to steal this shot and I was super stoked when I pulled it off and captured the moment without them even knowing it!!
