Happy Mother's Day from Cheyenne

So, it is Mother's Day and here in Cheyenne apparently that means it's time for a blizzard?!?

Who knew that you could get so much snow in May? I certainly didn't. (It's predicted to get 15 inches and snow all day tomorrow as well!!)

Our church meetings were actually cancelled and since we didn't want to stay inside allllllll day we took Winston out to play at the dog park. It wasn't the easiest task getting a pregnant lady ready for the snow. I ended up wearing Chris's bibs, insulated overalls, and his Carhart coat. I looked and felt like, a giant black marshmallow. That being said, that is why I am in none of these pictures.

I think that the best part of being a mom is being able to see your kids happy. While it was cold and the snow was blowing in my face I was still so happy to see Winston outside loving the snow. I would do anything for Winston to make him happy and he is my dog. I know I would go to the ends of the world for my children and I cannot wait for Lila to get here. Becoming a mother really helps you appreciate so much more all the things that your own mother has done for you.

I love my mother more than the world. She was always there for me, helping me do my best, learn and grow. She was a great example of what a mother should be. She sacrificed for the good of her children and is always willing to give more. I am so lucky and so grateful for the wonderful mother that I have! Happy Mother's Day!!!!

Lastly, I wanted to share a little bit of beauty that I was able to find in the snow today. Sadly, all of our plants have been covered with snow and I'm praying they survive, but there is something really beautiful about the snow in spring. Everything isn't just white. You get color and the snow together and I think that it is something very special.

 This is a tree in front of our house....I don't know what it is, but it is gorgeous covered in snow.

Again, Happy Mother's Day!!
