We TRIED to take Olivia to church, but she was laughing and acting crazy (aka NORMAL) the whole time... | |
| |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
...so we had to wait outside in the foryer. She got to hang out with mommy for a few minutes before she re-joined the choir to sing. | |
| |

We went to my boy Jim's house to see his new son James Paul Mara III, aka "J-Cube" or "JP3".

My sisters came over for dinner and Chelsea got to show off the brand new cast on her hand. She broke her finger playing softball! | |

These are Tracy's student's "GrassHeads". You make them by filling old socks with dirt and grass seed, then sowing faces on the socks. Impressive, eh? | |

Grandpa & Olivia hanging out in the shade at Kathryn's softball game... | |
| |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
...and this is the post-game "GoodGameGoodGame Line". This is when both teams line up and slap hands with each member of the other team and say "Good Game" over and over. (If you've ever been to a little league game, you know what I'm talking about) | |

Tracy and one of her co-workers went to look at wedding dresses for the day. Olivia spent the whole time checking herself out in the mirror. Where did she learn this diva behavior??? | |

After church on Mother's Day, we visited my mom's gravesite... | |
| |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
...then we took a walk around Manhattan Beach... | |
| |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
...then I took Tracy out for lunch at The Kettle!
HAPPY
MOTHER'S
DAY! | |
