Mother's Day 2010- Four children make for one very happy mom!

We had an amazing weekend!  Honestly I could not have had a better time.  We spent the weekend in Glenwood Springs at a fun old hotel, swam in the hot springs and played hard at the Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park!  We missed Tyler, but considering he was having a fabulous time in Hawaii we were all okay with that.  Morelson has been home three months this week.  To have this Mother's Day with him and to have had it turn out as amazing as it did is the best gift I could have ever received!  He was SO fun and completely engaged all weekend.  He just followed our lead and allowed himself to try new things and enjoy new surroundings.  He has amazing big sisters!  Both Brielle and Lacey love him dearly and he loves them dearly in return.  It was a picture perfect family weekend getaway that I'll always treasure!  It didn't take long to plan or completely break the bank to pull off, yet it was full of all the same stuff "those" type of vacations you hope will bring.  True, lasting impressions, the ones where your kids are having a blast doing something really silly and unexpected.  You buy something in a little shop that truly strikes your fancy and leaves you feeling a bit guilty.  You get to spend some one on one time with your husband and because it was at a place new to the two of you that spark comes back!  I'm happy, my kids are happy, and my husband's happy because we're all happy!  Mother's Day 2010 was just one of "those" days, a day in which every last ounce of you is content.  I started the weekend with excitement and hope, and I end it with immense satisfaction!
