Mother's Day Cook Out

My mom and I

Cute lil cousins cheezin it up

All the little ones gangin up on my brother josh

I hosted a cookout on Saturday for mother's day. My mom traveled down to Phoenix from the rez. We had lots of people over! Brother, cousins, in-laws, grandparents, cousin-in-laws, little cousins, and more. Andy's grandparents came over to spend time with us before they head out to Michigan for the summer. Andy's grandma was gracious enough to bring a turkey and a ham. She also made her famous delicious green jello, which is the bomb. My brother Josh is our chef when it comes to turkey. So thanks to him we had tasty deep fried turkey, Yum Yum. I have a pool in my back yard, which is perfect for hosting get togethers. After eating lots of good food we watched the little kids play in the pool. We practically had to chase them out of the pool. Even though the sun went down they were still splish splashing around. I wish my family lived closer so we could get together more. I can't wait for our next get together.

This is actually the first year that I've planned something for Mother's Day. After all these years I'm starting to appreciate all that my mother has done for me. Love you Mom!
