We had a great Mother's Day weekend. Mother's Day Eve, the Moores came over to make sushi. Naomi made the rice, I sliced the veggies, and Pete did the real work of assembling and rolling the sushi rolls.
Our ingredients (as shown above): tuna, shrimp, yellow/red bell pepper, avocado, carrots, and fish eggs.
Beautiful presentation, eh? Peter, you're a sushi master!
After dinner, the boys watched The Truth 11 (a bow-hunting DVD) while Naomi and I read and chatted.
My Mother's Day gift and cards.
My present! A few days ago, I asked Matt if we could start planning a vacation to Hawaii, just the two of us, before we have any more kiddos. He seemed agreeable but there was no definite "yes". Sunday, he gave me our change jar labeled with "Hawaii" and an additional $40 inside. Woohoo! We're shooting for next December or January.
That afternoon, Matt watched the boys while I hit the Gap and the library. Let the travel plans begin!

Hey Reese,
(Happy Mother's Day)^2!
So will there be any room in the trip to Hawaii for 2 more! That will be exciting. We went there on our Honeymoon but spent most of the time in the...HOSPITAL! So I owe Todd a makeup Honeymoon trip. He choose China though. It takes a lot of pennies, but it adds up.
matt-i'm impressed! nice work!
Good job on the creativity Matt, I am impressed and jealous! :)
