As soon as we got home from Disney, we hit the ground running with a FULL weekend of dance recital, Aunt Whitney's graduation from ECU, a funeral for a family member and Mother's Day. Shew!

The afternoon before recital we went to ECU to see Aunt Whitney graduate. She graduated with honors in Communications. That's more than I can say when I was in college...my goal was to just get out, haha! We are all so very proud of her!
The next day, on Saturday, we went to the funeral of my cousin and one of my very best friends mom. My cousin and I grew up like sisters to each other and we vacationed together every year. Seeing your mother go from being a completely healthy and normal woman in her 50's to becoming so incredibly sick so fast has got to be one of the worst things in life to face. It has been a very sad and trying time for our family and my heart breaks for my cousin and her loss. If only there was something that I could say or do to make everything all better...
The next day was Mother's Day. These are my gifts that my girls and Patrick picked out for me. I thought they were so sweet and I loved them :)

I am very blessed to have these amazing women in my life. Losing someone special just makes you want to cherish every second you have with the ones you love. Life is short, enjoy it while you can.
