mother's day  

Posted by Aaron and Lisa

Aaron has given me such a great Mother's Day! It has really been an all-weekend affair...on Friday he sent me to Richmond with some close girlfriends for a shopping trip :) I had been anticipating it for a couple of months and cannot explain how excited I was without sounding like a middle schooler (we made this joke a lot during the weekend because we all felt the same way).We stayed in a hotel right in the shopping area, so all we had to do on Saturday morning was walk out and start shopping. We got there early enough on Friday to relax in the hotel room before dinner at The Cheesecake Factory, where we stayed for several hours taking our time enjoying our food and desserts. We stayed up late talking on Friday night of course!

The rest of the weekend is simple to explain: we shopped and ate :)
Then today on Mother's Day, we spent the morning at church together! It was so difficult to send the girls to their classes because I missed them, but they always have fun with their friends. After church they napped and Aaron let me nap while he worked outside.
We were just hanging out and playing before dinner...watching the Cosby Show (the girls say, "I wanna watch Rudy!"), skyping with my mom and Grandma to wish them a Happy Mother's Day (they're at the beach), and then after baths we had some good story time together in mommy and daddy's bed. Speaking of baths, when I got in the shower this morning, I was greeted with this:
Aaron had written notes on each shower tile for me (from V and K's perspective). It was such a great way to start the day...so sweet.

I took some close-up pictures to share because I thought it might make someone laugh:
this one because it's so random that he would think of it!
and this one because of his cute artistic abilities :)


And as we speak he is cooking an awesome steak dinner for me!
It is such a privilege to be a mom to these two sweet sweet girls.

Happy Mother's Day Lisa! Glad you had fun on your shopping trip, and what a thoughtful husband you have to have decorated all those tiles! I showed Nate :) You are a godly woman and an encouragement to me as I am about to start this journey of motherhood!
