A Relay and Mothers/Aunt's Day

I hope everyone out there had a great Mother's day weekend. We started it off with the Relay for Life here in Cabot and we raised money and spent money and walked a lot!

It was much better than last year where we were rained out but we still didn't make it all night long. We did however make plans for us to do it again next month in Rogersville. Sandi loved to walk it and made it all of the years she was able. We walked for her in spirit last year while she was in the hospital and it was difficult to have to write in Memory of instead of in Honor of! Logan and Lauren both lit luminaries for their mom and the ceremony was more meaningful with so many names of loved ones to listen for. We had luminaries in honor and memory of too many people this year, I guess we need to keep working to fund raise to help find the cure! The kids had a good time and we had lots of friends there with us so it was a success! The kids even got to sing karaoke a bit toward the end of the evening!

We spent Saturday geocaching with the Bowies and had a lot of fun until it started raining. Logan is hooked on what he calls "finding geo's" I told him I won't take him again until he calls them caches like everyone else!

Sunday we went to church and tried not to make a big deal about the fact that it was mothers day. Logan and Lauren were spending their first without their mom so we didn't want to point that out all day long. After church I drove the kids back to Harrison where Mike met us to take them home. I can't even tell you how awesome it was to spend the weekend with all five of my kids!

Happy Mother's day to all of you that take care of anyones kids! Yours, mine or ours!
