The warm weather is here and it is time to play outside, bike ride, and BBQ. Unfortuntely it is also time for ALLERGIES! They have been horrible this year leaving me dizzy and drowsy. I have never had them this bad. I even passed out the other day (really weird). For this reason I have not blogged or had the energy and motivation to go through my pictures. Yesterday was Mother's day and I finally felt good enough to take some pictures and look through some.

On Saturday (after I passed out) I was out of it all day and Tony totally took over. He took the girls to their performance and cleaned the house, mowed the lawn, fed the kids etc. Around six I was feeling a little better so we went out. He took me shopping. I got some new biking shorts, workout clothes, shoes, and a mother's day dress. We had a fabulous dinner and had so much fun just talking. I love shopping with Tony because he is so much better than me at picking stuff. All that design training I guess. Also I know it isn't his favorite thing so it means a lot that he will devote an entire night to finding the perfect pair of shoes. On Sunday I got breakfast in bed, and the kids each picked out and paid for their own presents. Ben gave me earings, Whitney nail polish and emery board, Hannah a necklace, and Sarah my favorite gum. It meant so much that they spent their hard saved money on me, and they were so happy to have done it. After church Tony made a dinner of my favorite foods and the kids let me take pictures without complaining (too much!).

Thanks, I took all of them except the one of me and the kids. The family one I used the tripod. I was practicing using fill light because it was in the bright afternoon sun, so definately not ideal lighting.
