Birthday and Mother's Day

Tanner's birthday always falls on or around Mother's Day weekend. {he loves sharing it with me!} This year he was sick the whole week of his birthday {and missed one night of the choir concert}. It was a long week for all of us. He went to school on his birthday, even though he had come home the day before not feeling good. We celebrated with red velvet cake and he requested Portillos for dinner. {he's pretty easy to please}. Happy Birthday bud! We love you!!

We spent all day Saturday working in the yard and cleaning the house. I went for a 5 mile run that morning and then we painted all the outside furniture and planted all the flowers.  Jason was a great help to get everything I wanted to done. {I told him this could count as my Mother's day gift}.

I LOVE IT!!!!! It's so cute and colorful!! We can't do much in our little yard because of the rules, but I love all these colors we added!!

Sunday he made me breakfast in bed and got me a pink flower to wear to church {the real present he ordered me is on back-order and I still haven't received it yet!}. He made me dinner and we had yummy lemon cake for dessert, it was a pretty perfect day.
