Mother's Day Spilled Into Monday

Yesterday was Mother's Day. We had a great day. We spent it in Oklahoma City seeing all the family. We got there on Saturday just in time for lunch and to watch Sydney play soccer. Poor girl had to play the whole game so her face was beat red by the time we saw her.

She's the red headed one. Love the oil pump in the background

The soccer stars! We missed Sam's game.
After soccer, we went back to my parents house and had dinner. After dinner, the kids played and then my cousin Chris and Kassidy came over. We had a nice visit.

Sunday was Mother's Day. We had a great day. I got to sleep in and Mom and Wes made breakfast. My sister came over and we picked up the Grandma. It was fun.

 On Monday, Wes decided to take the day off for us to have a family day. The girls really had fun. We went for hair cuts and then had lunch at Cracker Barrel (the girls' choice).

Gotta play a game of checkers.
 After lunch, we stopped at the Duck Pond to play. While the girls were playing, Wes found a baby turtle. It was really fun to watch it and the girls. After awhile, Wes decided to let the turtle go back to the pond. There was another little boy playing and Gracie wanted him to come too. She took his hand and asked his mommy. All the kids loved watching the turtle. As soon as Wes put in on a rock in the pond, the turtle ran and jumped in the water.

From the park, we went back home and I took a nap. It was nice. We had a great weekend and glad we got to spend some time together as a family. We have been really busy and having one day to just slow down and hang out was fun!
