Mothers Day

This year was a hoot for Mothers Day. 

I had to work on Saturday at the Salon and thought ok it will be like any other Saturday night,

just Liv and I chillin with Justin Beiber. (ok I haven't taken it that far yet)

When what did my wondering eyes see, as I was closing up for the day. 

My little squirt was trying to open the doors.  

I even said out loud "hey that's my daughter, what the hey" 

And out pops Casey and Liv with a card. 

Then Liv bursts out "Pack your bags Mom" 

Say Whaaaat? 

  They had surprised me with a weekend away to Park City.

Heck yes! 

I was stoked, I never get surprises like this.

So we headed up to good ole Park City, the home of many a memories.

First we ate at our favorite restaurant up there, Loco Lizard. They have Flouatas to die for!

And about every 4.2 seconds Liv would ask if it was time to go swimming yet. 

Sheesh lady, what its not like it hasn't rained here for the past 256 days! 

I wasn't about to get into a swimsuit, but suckered into the peer pressures

and jumped my way into that bad boy swimsuit.

The next morning we went to Kneaders for their Mothers day breakfast

and lets just say, I'm still drooling over the saucy sauce they put on their french toast. 

It rained the entire day and we had the whole day to kill, so we drove around to our favorite spots. 

And landed upon this orchard which I love. I want one in my backyard one day.

DaDaDa!!! The dreaded Mothers Day!

For obvious reasons I have hated Mothers Day in the past.

Now I'm told I should love it since I'm a mommy!

Not so much, but I can't pin point it why I despise this day?

Is it because as much as I hate to admit that I fall into the pressures

of feeling like I have to be Mother of the Year

I also don't give a damn either? Because all that matters is that I am doing the best I can.

I sway back and forth all the time.

Anyone else do that?

But regardless I am amazed that every new day, I'm still her mom.
She still loves me even when I get mad.
She still loves me even thought I'm not perfect.
She still loves me even though I'm crazy.
She still loves me, and I love her more and more every day even when I didn't think it was possible.
(does it sound like a Hallmark card yet?)
Thanks Olivia for allowing me to be your mommy.
Plus your the ONLY person that can call me MOMMY and that's pretty cool!
Thanks babe for a great weekend. Love ya

Sheep you ask?

Yes sheep.

We were stalling while waiting for a family party and drove out to the middle of No Mans Land.

And found a quaint little town, population 15 that includes the sheep! 

And they were so focused on eating that I thought it would be funny to

roll down my window and make a BAAAAAAA noise, ya know like sheep!!

And whatdoya know!

All at the same time they looked up like HUH! 

It was classic! Guess you had to be there! 

I was a little nervous that the homeowner was going to come out with his shotgun and bust a cap!
