We had a great day today (Mother's Day). First, we went out to breakfast to IHOP. We haven't been out to breakfast for years (we just don't tend to do that). It was really nice and we made it to IHOP just in time because a huge line started just after we were seated. We gave Jenny her presents before we had breakfast. The kids (with my help) each made a collage with past pictures. Then I wrote anything they wanted to say to mom. We also made a Kiss Ticket book from which Jenny and redeem tickes for a kiss from each child. The books were made by having me put lipstick on each of the kids lips and having them kiss about 10 small pages. I gave Jenny a silver picture frame for a baby picture of Kyler. We will then get all of Kyler's birth stats engraved on one side of the frame. I also created my first home-made card for her. She was quite impressed for a home-made card from me.
Then we took off to do some more letterboxing in the south end (Puyallup and Tacoma). Our sucess rate was pretty poor. We found 2 of 8 with one of those two missing the stamp. We stopped for lunch a little after noon and it was pouring rain at a very nice park in Tacoma. It finally stopped raining and the rest of the day turned out to be very nice (high puffy clouds and lots of sun).
We headed home and got some Safeway chinese food which we all love. This was easier to do than make dinner after letterboxing all day. Then Aunt Barbara and Uncle Ken showed up around 6:30 for their 4 day visit.
Jenny gave the day a B+.

They forgot to tell about how Jenny drove Uncle Ken & Aunt Barb all around to locate smashed pennies machines during our wonderful 4 day stay with the Howards. We had a great time & delicious food as usual. Aunt Barb
