Lauren dominate's!

Lauren had a lot of fun activities last week so she is the star of this post! We started with a really fun Mother's Day Tea Party in her classroom. They made us bonnets and sang for us. They served cookies and ice tea. Well Lauren brought me a huge glass of it and I quietly declined. She decided it looked good and as she began to raise the glass to her mouth I yelled at her not to drink it. (She was across the room.) I think the other mom's thought I was a complete retard but I didn't want her have it. She then said" Oh, I forgot I am not aloud to drink tea, it's bad for you." Great times!



She made this cute calendar for me and on each month they drew a picture or wrote something to us. This page is called " All about Lauren's Mom." I don't know if you can read this but she said I was 20 years old, I weigh 200 pounds and I like to eat EVERYTHING! Thanks Lauren.
This one is a portrait of me. I think she did such a great job. The girls and I had a fun afternoon together.


Lauren and her girl scout troop went to Young Chef's Academy last weekend and they had so much fun! This was one of their rewards for selling girl scout cookies. They prepared everything and the recipe's were delicious. They made cinnamon and sugar chips with fruit salsa, quesadilla's and strawberry banana sippers! Yummy! We made everything again for family home evening on Monday!




Finally, we had swim lesson's. I got them over with early this year so we could enjoy our summer! She loves swimming and made tons of progress this time around! I had to put this picture in because this is her version of diving!




We had a great week with Lauren as the star. She is a sweet little girl that keeps me on my toes. She has such a strong spirit, she LOVES her family and we love her!

Great post! I love the Mother's Day letter from Lauren. It's so funny. My girls did one for me. My hair is yellow and brown (thank you chemicals), my favorite show is Dora and my favorite place to be is Target. They're pretty darn close. Cuties!
