Mother's Day Party
Golden, Colorado: May 12, 2013


I know everyone complains that I am always the person behind the camera, so I took some pictures before we left for Mike s parents' house.




All the cool weather this year delayed the tulips and other bulbs, so they were in full bloom.









My dad, goofing around with our nieces - Maddie and Val.








Happy onlookers - my mom, Rannae, and Mike.

Time for a new game....






















 
Mike is wounded in battle and veers off...



 
Mike collapses from exhaustion (he was kidding)...



 
A dull moment...

 
Not so dull!


 
A Maddie bridge

Valerie started collecting roly poly bugs (potato bugs - officially known as pill bugs), while the others played on.
















 
Valerie shows my mom the source of her bug collection...

 
Rannae

Valerie takes the bugs on a mystical journey...





 
The bugs were freed by the U.S. (Rob) acting on behalf of the U.N. (me) when she wasn't looking.

Present time!











Pretty cake that Terry picked up.



I received complaint about me not being in pictures at the party, so I took a few more when I got home.



 
I tried to take a buddy shot with Chloe, but she refused to participate.
