Mom's Birthday

Yesterday Was my Mom's birthday. We were able to pull off a surprise birthday party, for the first time ever! My dad planned the whole thing thing and while he was at work the kids worked together and got things put together. The hardest part was getting everything into the house and set up in the 30 minute window that Mom was picking dad up. This included the temperature sensitive food that Mom couldn't see, and the decorations, but like I said it was a huge success and it was so nice to have everyone there!

I seriously do not know how my mom does it. She amazes me day in and day out. When most people hear that she had 7 kids they are pretty shocked that she is still sane. If you have ever had a chance to meet my mom you would know she is more than sane. She is the best example of someone who never gives up, who has complete faith in the gospel, and someone who has their priorities straight. She has taught all of us kids How to be our best selves and has helped us when she can, and stood by us when we needed to grow. I love her so much and feel so blessed to have her in my life.

Mom turned 55 this year, and in her words she has 45 more years to go! Happy Birthday Mom!!!
