Mothers Day and More!

Over the last week or so we have really been doing some Mother's Day celebrating around the Trent house...and of course, I like it!  Logan had a Mother's Tea in his class last week which was PRECIOUS!  Seriously, I was almost teary it was so cute and sweet.  They sang songs, we ate some yummy snick snacks, they gave us gifts and we read a couple of stories.  Here are some action shots from the songs that Logan sang:

After already feeling super lucky, we had our garage sale this last weekend.  We had lots of help from the Aunties and had great luck getting rid of tons of STUFF.  I feel much more cleansed in general.  The house is at least 50 lbs. lighter :)  

Mom and I have been quilting up a storm over the last month or so.  We have made a couple of practice "signature" quilts prior to putting one together for Allyson and Archie's wedding.  I have included a picture of the second one we completed which has the couple's last name at the top and the year of marriage at the bottom.  

On Saturday night we had the first of festivities for Allyson and Archie's wedding in September.  The party was a huge success and my Aunt Betty and Uncle Ken even made the trek our way to help christen their new home.  

Finally, Sunday was Mother's Day.  I wasn't super well rested because we had been out late the night before at the Stock the Bar Party, but I had a fab day even so...we went to church then breakfast at the Local Diner.  Then we took my mom shopping for new clothes.  If you haven't seen Mimi lately, she is quite the diva.  She has lost 30 lbs.  and has a lot more confidence about herself...as she should!  We went shopping for 2 hours before dinner and did some serious damage.  Emily was in the dressing room with mom, Allyson was hanging up clothes, and I was the runner between the dressing room and store floor finding new sizes and new things to try on.  It was quite the production.  Mom even got a new "little black dress" for her anniversary trip to Las Vegas with Daddy.  She purchased a lot of trendy choices and they all look great on her!  Such a successful trip!  Congrats Mom!
