Mommy's Birthday

Mommy turned 31 today!  Oliver and Mommy slept over at Grammie’s last night, so Mommy could celebrate her birthday by taking an early, early morning long run along the 101.  Perfect start to her day! Oliver and Grammie sang Happy Birthday to Mommy when she walked in the door.  Cute!

We came home to rest and work in the backyard for a little bit.  We collected tons of lemons from our lemon tree.  We also worked on one garden bed, pulling weeds and some wildflowers.   We are going to try planting one garden bed at a time—we have a lot to learn about gardening! 

In the afternoon we went to Grammie’s house to celebrate Mommy’s birthday and the Super Bowl.  Grammie loves football!  She was excited that two teams from the Midwest were playing!  Mommy had a really nice birthday with her family and her little man!
Oliver wanted some Girl Scout cookies.  Look at the little
smirk on his face.  He opened a box on his own and
 brought that to Mommy.  Naughty.
Our beautiful little lemons.
 Our tree has so many lemons!
 Yellow and Purple wildflowers Mommy picked from
the garden bed.  (Perfect combination.)
 Rachel was fascinated with Uncle Chad's hairy toes.
She doesn't crawl yet, but she was working on it here!
Aunt Jess loves playing with her little Owl!
 We ate yummy food from Pat and Oscars.  
Mommy's Birthday choice!

Grammie got this card for Mommy.
It kind of reminds Mommy of--Aunt Jess, Aunt Ali, and then Mommy...
 Aunt Jess took this picture.  She also let Mommy know
that she was "weird" and "peculiar."(hmmm...)  Thanks Aunt Jess!
 Beautiful Girls
 Grammie made brownies for Mommy's birthday!
