hip hip hooray

For some reason growing up we always celebrated mom on December 15. It's like another mother's day, only better. All moms get to be celebrated on mother's day, but today is a day held especially for my mom! It's "best mom, Nannie Annie, and mother-in-law in the world" day. Zebby is especially sad he can't actually be there to celebrate so he is holding the sign (and has that look on his face).
Mom, you are the best for many many reasons. We'll list just a few here!

1. you have always built us up and caused us to be better
2. you have taught us and made us smarter
3. you are a world traveler and always bring back the best gifts
4. you help build kent's fabulous tie collection
5. you make great stuffing
6. you always have great advice, but only when we ask for it :)
7. you overlook our faults and think we really are the best children ever
8. you have forgotten (well almost) all of the pain I put you through when I was born
9. you always send zebby the coolest stuff
10. you always check in on me, even though I'm a grown up.
11. you always tell me that I am your favorite daughter
12. you always tell Kent that he is the favorite son-in-law
13. you always tell zeb that he is the favorite daughter's baby
14. you are so accomplished and we are so proud just to be your family members
15. you are the best mom, mom-in-law, nannie annie ever!

WE LOVE YOU and CAN'T WAIT UNTIL TUESDAY!

Oh go on. It's all true---I do have the best, smartest, nicest, prettiest, genuinest, most popular, beautiful, kind, fetching, hardworking, perservering, long suffering, charitable children ever (even if you are from your dad's first marriage).

And don't tell your sisters but you're my favorite daughter Leisy. And Kent is the favorite son in law in medical school

And to top it all off, your dad's grandson is the ultimate best, smartest, nicest, handsomest, genuinest, most popular, beautiful, kind, fetching, hardworking, perservering, long suffering, charitable baby.

Zebster is quite the little cutie I must say! Here is the recipe that you asked for like 5 years ago....SUPER easy and SUPER good!!!

Garlic-Cheese Buscuits

2 c Bisquick
3/4 c milk
3/4 c sharp cheddar cheese (I add a little more sometimes)
1/4 c melted butter
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp italian seasoning

combine bisquick, milk and cheese drop spoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 450 for 7-9 mins.

microwave butter, stir in spices
and pour over biscuits when hot.

These are seriously SO good!

we want everyone to know that this anonymous comment was not by taylor or laney. we would never have called mom a grandma, she is far too young.

When you're old enough to have twins that are 26 years old, you're old enough to be a Grandma.

But the twins are from Phil's first marriage---gosh, I thought EVERYONE knew that.
