Mother's Day Weekend

Mother's Day weekend was a doozy in these parts. Mainly because it wasn't in these parts, but was actually spread out over Eastern Washington with lots of driving by this mother. Bryan had prom - an administrative perk - and thus had to stay in Hermiston. We hit the road Friday afternoon and returned Sunday night. Whew!
There was a brief nap period between Hermiston and Ephrata, which I loved and recklessly photographed.
In Ephrata, the kids got to see their grandparents Allstot and great grandparents Pobst.
Shannon insisted on feeding Great Papa grapes one at a time!
In Spokane we got to see Great Grama Sally's new home - complete with fresh cookies!
We spent Saturday night on Greenbluff with Sue and Steve and my folks.As we drove away on Sunday morning, Mitch burst into tears at the end of the driveway, "I'm sad to leave the goats!" he wailed. Steve's herd is a major attraction for my kids!
The weather was gorgeous!
Sunday afternoon we went to Haylee's 4th birthday party and got to spend time with LaVines, grandparents Johnson, Aunt Rachel and more. It was fun, too, but I'm without photos. The trip home was not fun. However, we survived and all Mother's Days from here on out are bound to be, um, easier.
