This way my first Mother's Day and I couldn't have been more excited to spend it with my own mother. My family for to come down for the weekend to visit and so we did as we always do, we stayed up really late being silly and having a great time!
That Saturday it was suppose to be rainy, but we decided to go fishing anyways. It was sunny and didn't seem so bad and we all really wanted to enjoy the warmer weather on the beach. It was Rhyker's first time to the beach which was so exciting and I was anxious to stick his little toes in the sand and water. We decided to walk over the restrooms before we headed down to the water and even though it was clear skies, out of nowhere it started POURING!! Me and mom where scrambling trying to shield Rhyker from the rain and trying to stop laughing as we are standing in the parking lot "stuck". There was a man in a truck watching..I swear he was getting a good laugh out of our reaction to the rain. Being as Skyler, Ethan, and dad had already went down to the beach we could see them running up. We all got back to the car, mom opened the van's trunk and tried to use that as shelter, but the rain was coming sideways and the 'shelter' didn't work. We all jumped in the car and as we are all laughing we realize my sister had just jumped in the trunk and closed the door in the scramble. The rain stopped almost as soon as we finally jumped in the car..go figure right!? 
When we finally got out we were all soaked (except Rhyker). We all walked down to the beach with hopes that the rain would be done for a while. It didn't rain the rest of the time we were there. We got to the sand and I put Rhyker's toes in it. He gave me the, "mom WHAT is this??" face! It was funny. I held his hands as I walked him into the water. He liked it all until I had the genius plan to write his name in the sand and sit him up to take a picture. He toppled over face first into the sand! *face palm* I felt bad, but me and my mom couldn't stop laughing. He didn't like the sand for a few minutes after that.
Nobody on the beach caught anything that day, but we all had a blast playing in the water and casting the line out anyways.
The next day we all just enjoyed each other's company. We didn't make it to church like we wanted because we stayed up really late the night before. It was so nice to be able to see my mommy and of course the rest of my family. All in all I had an incredible Mother's Day Weekend!
Oh, and I got my mom these beautiful orange and white roses.
