Mother's Day Lunch

Jacob's Well always has a very special Mother's Day service and I've been thinking for a couple years that we should invite our moms over for church and lunch.  This was the year!  I was really looking forward to making it super special for our moms - treating THEM because they always treat us.  I wanted to really make them feel loved, appreciated, and adored.  Because they are.  I even tried to get them to not bring anything for lunch, but that didn't work - they both brought something to share.  :)

I decorated the week leading up to Mother's Day (I think the table was set on Wednesday!) because I knew there wouldn't be time with a busy weekend ahead.

The kids and I made these vases and flowers.

I was going with a "flowery" theme, so I had some fun with tissue paper flowers.

We had drinks and snacks right away and then a light lunch.

We snapped a quick photo right after church.

Me and my kids!

And one with Baggie, too.

The boys were excited to try lemonade from their special bottles and straws, but it wasn't really a hit with them.

Papa and Eden had fun hanging out!

Our awesome moms!

Toy Story characters end up all over - no matter what.  I can't seem to keep them at bay.

The men cleaned up the whole meal and kitchen while the moms relaxed!  It was awesome!

Bennett and Eden REALLY enjoyed some cupcakes...

She's the cutest.  EVER.

We ended our night with a sweet storytime.  I'm one lucky mom.
