Mother's Day

I'm working on getting everyone caught up - so here is how Mother's Day weekend went.
It was a very busy, very fun weekend!!! On Friday night we stayed with my best friend Sarah and her family. Jackson and Joe had a great time playing and Kate tried as hard as she could to keep up. It's funny because Jackson (almost 5) and Joe (just turned 4) are the same size and have the same color hair. They look a lot alike just like Sarah and I did at their age - yes we have known each other for that long!
On Saturday we took Joe to the Zoo and met Sara, Matt, Matthew and Keith. It was a beautiful day and the Zoo was a little crowded. The kids had a blast. Kate had not been to the Zoo since she was under a year old. She loved seeing all of the animals. Of course we had to ride the train also - Joe and Jackson are very fond of trains.
We had a lot of fun!
On Saturday night Sara and I took my mom out to dinner for Mother's Day. We went to The Cheesecake Factory at the Galleria and then did a little shopping.
Sunday was my niece Brittany's confirmation. It was an eventful day. The storm from the night before had cause the electricity to be out at church. Most of the service was by candlelight and flashlight. In the middle of Communion the lights came back on! Brittany looked beautiful and I was very proud of her. After the service Brian and Susan had a luncheon/party to celebrate. It was nice to visit with family and friends. Kevin left a little early and took the kids to visit his mom. He brought home Pirrone's Pizza - yummy!!!
Like I said - it was a great weekend!!
Here are a few pics from the weekend.
