Mother's Day and my Birthday


This last April 30th, found me turning 26. It is amazing to think what a full and good year this has been...filled with incredible blessings. To celebrate, Nate took me to 'Flemings', a downtown steakhouse. It was fun to run into one of my highschool friends, Chris Cox, who is the manager at that Restaurant. Mother's Day was incredible. I am amazed that so much joy and love can come from being a Mother. Great work and sacrifice? Of course, and yet I honestly can't think of anything that compares to the joy I feel as a Mom...except marriage. We enjoyed attending a Jazz game with Nate's work friends, against the San Antonio Spurs (we lost unfortunately, which consequently ended our season). We also had a wonderful time hosting our friend Bethany who was visiting from London. She is a lovely girl. One of our favorite date's was having a barbecue and playing tennis with my brother Rich and his wife Jen. Mason is growing so fast! He rolls a lot, laughs and smiles, and is mostly just content and sweet. He is learning how to eat ... everything. He enjoys rocking in his rocking chair from Great-Grandparents Freeman, and hanging out with his new friend Kensington. Nate thinks he kind of likes her. We are still loving Salt Lake, and looking forward to Summer: 1/2 marathon, barbecueing, swimming, and spending time with family and friends! Hoping to write more often on the blog :). Sorry for the feast/famine affect.
