Happy Mother's Day Mommy


Okay really is that my Mom? Yes. She is adorable. I am so thankful for her and all that she has taught and instilled in me. 


She is the most energetic and positive person I know. She accepts and loves all types of people and embraces all different cultures. Whenever she would drive my friends and I around in Jr high and high school all of my friends were just as excited to be with her as they were with me. She was so much fun and has always been the life of the party.

She has had rich life experiences traveling and living all around the world, learning new languages, meeting interesting people - but with all of this I also know she'd drop any part of her fabulous life if any of her 6 children needed her. She travels all over the country to babysit and spend time with her 15 (soon to be 16) grand kids. All of the grand kids are very impressed with all Grandma's life experiences and think she is about the hippest, happiest grandma around. She also has instilled in her grandchildren as well as her children her love of nutrition, exercise and overall health.
The house in the background is her current "project." She tore down an old 60's ranch style home in Sugarhouse and has been building this gorgeous mansion. She was the designer, general contractor, realtor, etc. She has been intimately involved in every single detail. She is very talented!! 

We are so proud to have you as our mom! Love you! Happy Mothers Day!!!

I remember your mom in junior high. She was always doing some adventure that I thought was so cool. I would love to see her finished house someday. I love seeing people passion.

P.S. I have missed you in the blog world. I have no idea where or what you are doing now? Are you still in AZ?

Oh my gosh...that house is right down the street from us. We drive past it seriously every day. Crazy that it is your moms project. It looks amazing now.
