Mother's day, Flowes and music

The Month of May is turning out lovely! And I love flowers, and my kids and music and my honey. And thank you family for being my biggest fan. You guys know how to love me.
We usually go to the Music and the Spoken word for mother's day on Sunday, but we had to post pone that by 1 week so my mother's day lasted for 2 weeks! Any of yours?
The choir was fabulous! And I have the honor to say that I've sung with the Choir now. After the regular broadcast, they were doing a mini concert for a special group that was in attendance, and they sung the Battle Hymn of the Republic. The conductor turned around during part of the ch ours and lead the audience and we all got to sing along with the choir. So fun.

After the choir. I went on the Temple Square Garden tour, which was spectacular. (HEy Shannan, you'd be all over this! I even learned about this awesome perennial called a Spanish Bluebell that looks fantastic and I'm gonna try and order some for the fall!)
The tulips were just about done with, they've started their pull outs of the spring flowers but left this bed in for 1 more week. Also found out that they compost their old bulbs, so darn.

Look at my cute boys by the Assemble Hall. Everyone loves this annual trip to Temple Square in the spring. And it's always great to give Hyum the camera. Mom and Sierra at the broadcast.

We also explored the surrounding areas of Temple square. East of the temple grounds is City Creek park and the Brigham Young Gardens. This is Dallin going through the tunnel and out the other side. Always up for a challenge. Hyrum did it first, and made it through so, Dallin cannot be upstaged by that!

But as a funny side note, Hyrum while jumping from rock island to island, fell in and got his church shoes all wet. Sierra at the Brigham Young gardens. We ate lunch over here. Very peaceful.
Shawn and Hyrum acting out the statue in the background. p.s. I think the hitter position is tons better that the holder one!


Well, the month of May is turning out quite wonderful!

The Flower garden, Part 2





Oh Spring has finally sprung! Look at the pretty flowers. And I even weeded for the picture! You all are making my garden more beautiful because now I'm accountable for every weed! Now, all I need to do is fill in with some annuals that my family is buying me for mother's day. And I had to do a lot of convincing with that. All I want this year is flowers, peace and happiness. I totally know what my mom was talking about with wanting peace and happiness for at least one day.
