Play Date with the Boys....

Thursday ended up being a Play Date with all my boys! So wonderful! I started by keeping Forrest while his mom went to the dentist. We spent three hours at the Memphis Zoo. His favorite part was by far the Old Faithful in the Teton Trek...It is supposed to be like the real place, but, it is really a water park. He had a blast...We also watched the apes get fed....they stared at us humans like we were the ones on display. The keeper threw lettuce, carrots, and other veggies, but, they were holding out for the watermelon....

Forrest and I then went to Max's Play at school...His was abut Martin Luther King, Jr. I asded Forrest if he knew who he was, and he said yes, but, couldn't remember what he did. I know he does now, because I got chills as Max talked about his life...

After the play, Max and Forrest and I went for ice cream then it was time for Max's Baseball Game. Brian of course was there, but, I asked his brother to come too. He did, and I was with all my boys....now, things do not get much better than that!!!

Mother's Day 2010


Forrest and I under the magnolia trees. Lily and Max literally stayed in these trees while the rest of us picnicked in the park. I loved the hugging...





The kids in the trees. All we had to say was, Oh go climb a tree...then they did!!!



Tree climbing...




I was asked about the grandsons and their hugs...boys just don't have the time....I told Amy and her mom that the only time Max would sit in my lap was when he hurt himself...so, I trip him a lot!!! NO, I don't really!!!!



Brian and Shannon.... love them....



Kevin and Amy...love them too.. What? You ask what is on his head???? Well, it wasn't sunscreen!


Amy and her mom, Patty. About to be a blushing bride soon!!!


Wanted a nice picture of myself with my two beautiful necklaces....Kevin took the picture, then laughed so hard....
Look at Lily in the background... Silly girl!!!
