Mother's Day

We had a glorious Mother's Day weekend. Ron and I went to Olathe on Friday, so we stopped by the Goddard School to visit Peyton and meet her teachers. Peyton was a perfect host and enjoyed showing us around the school and introduced us to her classmates. She was all smiles - we were VERY proud grandparents. What fun. We dropped by the Todds and picked up Apollo so we could bring him to Clinton with us for a mini-vacation. He, too, was happy to see us.

Amanda, Chad and Peyton arrived in Clinton after dinner on Saturday night. We got to play with Peyton, and I even got to help with Peyton's bath which was great. We had a great time visiting with Amanda and Chad after Peyton went to bed.

Sunday, Amanda, Peyton, Murray, Apollo and I went to Great-Grandma/pa Mintun's for breakfast. Peyton entertained us while we sat at the kitchen table - she thought her blocks were great fun while sitting in her high chair. She is sitting so good now - sitting on a quilt she had fun playing with Great Grandma.

Of course, Peyton was a big hit at church - everyone thought she was adorable (well, duh). Grammy enjoyed showing her off. After church, my Mom and Dad, Ron's Mom, and Mark and Mary joined the Todds and us for Mother's Day lunch. Peyton devoured her green beans and cereal - she is such a good little eater. Everything she does is so cute, of course.

We got to play a little while before everyone went home. It was a great day and fun weekend - just too short.

Mid-afternoon, I headed to Jefferson City to spend the night before training on Monday. Will return home on Monday evening, hopefully in time to see Dancing with the Stars. Murray is staying with Mom and Dad while I am gone - he will have to rest up after his big weekend with his doggie relatives.
