Conner's First Communion

Conner's First Communion was perfect!  He was so nervous the night before and the morning of.  However, when the time came, he did an awesome job.  Father Glenn, as always, gave an amazing homily which really made me, as a parent, realize how quickly time passes and how First Communion is one of the few events in life that mark growing up.  Conner sure has grown up over the past year - he is more confident and more proud.  He also knows many of his strengths and weaknesses.  I am proud of him.  We celebrated with many friends and family - it takes my breath away to realize all of the love that surrounds our kids - we are so blessed!

Father Glenn came out to celebrate Conner's First Communion with us - of course - he had to go fishing with Conner Mac!

Conner's first win!

Conner won his first tournament yesterday!!  He and Dayton not only had five fish but they also had big bass!  I loved watching him proudly walk up, weigh in the fish and accept the prize money.  He works so hard at everything he does - especially fishing. We are so proud of him!

Drew's First Bass Tournament!

Drew was in his first bass tournament yesterday.  He did AWESOME! Jason was his partner.  They only caught one keeper but it was HUGE! Drew fished all morning long - even though it was freezing cold.  I am so proud of his patience, his perseverance and his spirit!

These days...

These days are the best days...why can't time slow down?!?!?

Mother's Day!

I loved my Mother's Day this year!  We had so much fun - we fished, went to the park and had a really nice dinner.  I caught the biggest bass of the day too which was the cherry on top! I love being Conner, Drew and Brenna's mom - it is the best role and the best job I have ever had.  I am so blessed!
