Mother's Day Dinner

Slow cooking ribs smelled so good all day. It was wonderful when it was time for dinner. 

Everything was so yummy. I loved having many of my babies around me for dinner. I just adore my people.

Ok this proves that the kids know me so well!

Today was a wonderful day!  Happy Mother's Day, may God bless each of you as he has for me!

Seeing Westhoff Family

The Westhoff's came into town and we met them for lunch. It is always good to see our Houston friends. I am missing picture of Christopher and Mr. Westhoff but they were with us.

We want to thank Twin Adorable's God parents for these very cool large size dolls. They were a big surprise.

Play Time

Everyone is playing with their new gifts and with each other.

I love the days after Christmas. Often things are quiet. Everyone is playing with their gifts. This always makes for a fun house!

Tea Party

One gift that the twins each got from Santa was tea sets. A big party was planned and even the boys were allowed to attend.

Somehow the twins got the boys to actually serve the Tea Party.

After tea we all retired to the living room for a family rosary.

I got to say that this family time is a beautiful time. We have laughed, prayed and eaten good foods. We are beyond blessed.

Christmas Morning

Our family traditions are that on Christmas and Easter, the kids must wait until dad approves them entry into the down stairs. 

Once everyone was down stairs the fun would begin.

There were some great gifts that were shared. There are so many thoughtful gifts from the kids that went back and forth. I love watching them open the St. Nick gifts and then the gifts from each other. I am taking great pleasure from the kids interactions.
