That’s right. I said WEEKEND!

I know, Mother’s Day is every day i get to spend with my little munchkins, but this weekend has been extra special. Besides all of the giggles, and hugs and kisses, I got to spend some time watching them have fun. I mean really have fun! We took the girls back to Fairy Tale Town, and to the Sacramento Zoo. We bought memberships to both places last time we were there… so we can go there every chance we get!

Fairy Tale Town was first. The girls went down every slide at least once. They giggled all the way down. They are just too cute! They had fun “driving” the train, and climbing all over Cinderella’s horses. They got water from Jack and Jill’s well, and slid down the rabbit hole. They even got to pet Peter Rabbit! It was so much fun.

From there, we went across the street to the zoo. They got to see the penguins, and giraffes, lions and tigers, lemurs and parrots. It was a fairly quick, but very cool trip to the zoo. We came home, ate lunch and put them down for nap. After they woke up, we took them to the mall and then out to dinner with their Auntie & very soon to be Uncle. We had planned on going to Claim Jumper, but instead went to Outback due to the long long long wait. The wait wasn’t too bad, and the girls actually had a lot of fun dancing and playing while we were waiting. During dinner, we actually had a great time. The girls were so happy, and eating so well. We found out the girls LOVE baby back ribs. They are soooooo my children. LOL.  On the way home, we really thought they would fall asleep… no such luck. They were wide awake until we got them home to bed.

Bright and Early Sunday morning, they’re awake and laughing. We all got up, and went downstairs. Daddy and the girls gave me a gift certificate to the spa! I can choose anything I’d like to do there. I’m so excited. It was the coolest gift they could’ve given me… besides all the smiles and laughter. It was a good day today as well… We spent the morning with Grandma Marvin. Made a big breakfast, and spent the morning playing. They were hungry and sleepy after she left, so we gave them lunch and put them down for a nap. Meemaw and Peepaw got here later in the afternoon, and were here when the girls woke up from nap. More playing, gift giving, and fun. Peepaw took them for a nice long walk. It was so cute. They walked with him and held his hands without a struggle. It was really just too cute.

After dinner, they each got their own popsicles for dessert. They looked so cute with popsicle all over their faces and their big smiles. Then it was off to bath and bed. I got so many hugs and kisses this weekend. It made this weekend just perfect.

To all other Mom’s who read this. Happy Mother’s Day!
