Mother's Day

This is my mom. I like this picture because it shows her laughing and I love her laugh! She is the most amazing mother. She is kind, loving, charitable, hardworking, talented, smart, and much more.  I am so grateful she was able to be home with us to strengthen our family by having family dinner every night, holding Family Home Evening each week, and having us all work together as a family. She taught me the importance of hard work and the satisfaction and fun that you can get from it. She taught me the principles of the gospel by word and example which has been the greatest blessing in my life. She taught me how to serve and sacrifice by her example. My mom has always been a great support to me. I don't think she ever missed one of my games or concerts growing up. If you don't already know, my mom is an amazing cook and I am so grateful I was able to learn by watching and helping alongside her. I love my mom and am so grateful for her example, sacrifice, and hard-work for me.

This is my mother-in-law, Cathy. She is always smiling! She is kind, loving, and eager to make others happy. I am so grateful for the love and support she has given to Nick and I. She is a great example to me of faith and sacrifice. She is so much fun to be around and I love playing games with her, especially Settler's of Catan. :) I am so grateful for such an awesome mother-in-law!
