Dan gave me one of the best Mother's Day presents, not driving on Mother's Day. He drove 20 hours straight from Nebraska to AZ just so we wouldn't be driving on Mother's Day. Thanks babe! For the big day we had a pretty low key day. We visited with family, I didn't cook dinner, and I got to take a nap. Hollyn gave me a picture frame with a picture of her inside that she made at preschool. She was so excited to give it to me and made we wait to open it until Mother's Day. The wrapping was so cute. She had written "I lov mom." There's no better gift than one made from your child. Now I know why my parents loved when we made them stuff. Dan also got me a pair of jeans that were much needed. I will have to say I love being a mom and don't remember what we did for entertainment before we had kids. Live was not as fun without them.
Quick update on the family:
Dan finished his second year of law school and is officially a 3L. He also has an internship with Jackson White this summer in AZ.
Geri had a little mishap on her nose. I got a little precancerous spot removed on the bridge of my nose. The plus side is that I got to go to a plastic surgeon and there will only be a small scare. The down side is that I didn't get to see the surgeon for something a little more fun than a cancer spot removed and my nose looked like I was punched in a fight. I will also start teaching my swim lessons next week, so I'm enjoying a week off before my summer work begins.
Hollyn finished her first official year of preschool and loved it. She can't wait to do swimming lessons, cooking classes, dance, and play with cousins and friends this summer. Hollyn is also doing great in school and can read and write lots of words. 
Paige is a wild girl. She looks like she is 4 months but moves like she is 9. Paige will be 7 months on the 20th and has been crawling for about a month now. She loves to climb on things and get into anything she shouldn't, but she will flash the cutest smile when she does anything notty and knows her mom can't resist her smile.

I feel so privileged to be invited to your exclusive blog. :)
Hope you're having a great time.
I had a precancerous spot taken off a few years back, i did not get to go to a plastic surgeon though... lucky. Ha, just kidding. If you aren't too busy we should try to get all the girls together from the MacArthur days, just let me know or you can email me your #. Hopefully we can get together!
A good update. I'm jealous you're in AZ for the whole summer. Does it feel good to be half way done with law school?? Way to go Dan!
Paige is crawling?? Oh my gosh, you've got a little mover on your hands. Sara is really trying and working at it, but not there yet. Can't wait to get together with you guys when we get back. Hope you're doing well.
Thanks to Dan again for helping unpack!
