In Memory Of

This post is dedicated to my Grandma Lampson, also known as Dorothy, Dottie, Dot, and Gama! My grandma past away on May 15th 2009. She was  an amazing woman who loved her daughters, sisters, granddaughters, and most of all the gospel. She served in many callings and served many people. 

Some of my fondest memories I have of her are the weekends we would spend together when I was growing up. I am one of only two grandchildren so I was pretty spoiled to always have MY grandma growing up. 

She has been apart from her Parents, Husband, and Son for many years now. She will be missed but is in a better place. I am grateful to have had such a wonderful woman in my life for so many years and  look forward to the day when I will get to see her and hug her once again.

Happy Mama's Day!!!

We had such a great mothers day yesterday, it was filled with sunny weather, Tasty homemade Carbonara (so amazing thanks to the amazing Chef Mom), Yummy Chocolate Decadence Cake, a Cold Stone Cookie Dough Ice Cream Cake, great company, and good memories that will last forever!

We started the day off with Church, all the women in our ward received Tomato plant for the mothers day present! I love it and can't wait to plant mine, I will keep you updated!!!

Then we headed off to my house! My mom is an amazing hostess and made an amazing meal! We had a huge antipasto tray filled will meat, cheese, peppers, olives, baby corns, grilled asparagus, and so many more yummy things! Then she made some amazing Carbonara! It was such a great dinner, now you are probably saying why did I make my mom cook dinner... she likes to do it and is much happier if she is the cook :) She should open her own restaurant!!!

She is such a talented person in so many ways! She can cook, paint, make us all laugh, and is creative in almost every single way, she is selfless and always puts others before herself! She is a hard worker, great sister and an amazing mother! She is so much fun to be around and we always have blast when we are together! I am so glad she is my mom and couldn't have asked for a better mom for me!!!

Next we went to Josh's house. We had a great time spending time with the whole family and loved being able to catch up on everyones lives! The Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream Cake from Cold Stone was great and we loved every bite!

Julie is such a great mother in law! She is so thoughtful and always making sure we are taken care of. She is always serving others and knows how to make all her kids feel loved! She is always on the go and is very organized in everything she does! She is a great example to follow and is a joy to be around. Josh is still her baby boy, and is more and more grateful for her every single day. He couldn't ask for a better mom for him!!!

We are so lucky to have these two women in our lives!!! They are both so amazing and so good to us! We couldn't ask for better mothers to love and to be loved by!!! We are grateful for all they do and look forward too making more fun memories with them!!!

XOXO Josh and Em
