Mother's Day

This morning I woke to breakfast in bed after a brief sleep in, complete with a handwritten note from Mike. I was gifted a box of Hot Tamales (my fav) from my oldest girl, and school crafts from the elementary kiddos which now line the mantel on the fireplace. 


After church, I fed everyone lunch and tidied the kitchen and then Mike and I took off to BC with the three youngest for a road trip. He has been wanting to check out the area around Osoyoos for a while, so we decided to make a mini vacay out of it and bring the littles along. 


They were fascinated with the views of mountains and lakes along the way. As we drove, Lily said, "I'm hungry. Candy is not going to do it anymore!". That was our cue to stop at the next town for dinner.

We stayed at base camp in Revelstoke which was self check in. We got a place with three bedrooms, three bathrooms a kitchen and livingroom. It was quite enjoyable! As Lily ran around checking everything out she exclaimed, "This is so ACE!" Something one of the big kids would say. 

Sawyer and Lily ended up sharing a room and Cooper took the last room with his play pen. It has a bed in it, so if he decides to be a stinker tonight I will just snuggle into that bed with him and let everyone else sleep (and hopefully sleep in). I'm regretting not being more prepared with granola bars or snacks for the older kids. This trip kind of snuck up on us after a busy few weeks and I didn't get as much done before hand as I'd hoped.
