We had a great Mother's Day. First we went and picked up Josh's mom and took her to breakfast at a place called Coleman's out in Gales Creek. On our way home, we decided to go to Fred Meyer to pick up some hanging flower baskets for our front porch. Josh's Uncle had just gotten some really pretty ones there. When we got there they were pretty much all out of the baskets, especially the nicer looking ones. That didn't stop us from creating quite the chore list for the rest of the day. We bought four dark pink calla lily plants to put in the flower bed in our back yard along with some lupines. When we got home and started to plant, we realized we should get some more mulch so Josh ran and did that. Keep in mind that we were expecting my family over for a ham dinner at 5:00 and I still had to get that going! It was a busy day but we had a lot of fun and I think we might start a Mother's Day planting tradition. The flower bed is looking really nice and on Monday we also planted a vegetable garden and a little fruit/berry garden. So, given that it's our first attempt at a garden, we are hoping for fresh tomatoes, zucchini, peas, carrots, green beans, broccoli, cauliflower, red and green peppers, blueberries, watermelon, honeydew melon and strawberries!! It's going to be fun to show Megan how they are growing and then ultimately be able to pick and eat our own fresh veggies!
After dinner on Sunday, Megan pulled out her new baseball tee and showed us all her talent. I knew that she could hit the ball off the tee but then she actually started hitting the ball when we tossed it to her. Of course we missed all of the really good hits on camera but I think it's pretty impressive that a 2 year old could have such good hand/eye coordination. Another thing we noticed is that she is swinging left handed and throws right handed. (Not sure if that's because she has the bat in her left hand or not.) Anyway, I'm already envisioning our little Megan cranking the ball over the short right field fences!! And she's already got quite the arm!!
I'm not sure what the original question was, maybe, "Do you love Mama?" But this was her response. She was very disapointed that he was not able to join us. She did however get to say hi when he called Kelly.

Of course Megan is adorable, but all I can get our of these video is my hideous laugh.
Your laugh brings laughter & joy. So I ask you how can that be hideous?
