Waiting semi-patiently for the missionary. Luckily it was the middle of the day rather than the night like when my brother came home.
My Mom also turned 50 about a week or two ago. We had planned a surprise party for her and then my sister had to go and have her baby, (kidding meg) so we changed plans. But I think it actually turned out better than it would've anyways. Meg and Ben got home from the hospital just in time to come out to my mom and dad's to surprise her. I felt bad we had to tell a couple lies to her to get her out of the house, but I think we made up for it in the end. My brother Luke and his wife Lise were able to make it down from Montana and so that was a huge shocker to my mom when she saw them. It was awesome. I just have to say that I have the greatest mom in the whole world, and am so grateful for her. Even though she's 50, she's still so beautiful and young!!
All the grandkids were awesome, we got them to be absolutely silent as my mom walked in so she had no idea we were there. Fruit snacks are amazing.
I feel bad that I didn't get any pictures of my mom, but my sister Megan got some great ones of her on their blog, so you can check them out there.
It's been really fun to celebrate both of the two wonderful people!!

What is it with you Jenkins girls...you are so gorgeous while pregnant. You look really great.
You do have an amazing Mom (and your right, she is so beautiful)
Jess you are 8 months pregnant so you have an excuse to " sit on your duff" all you want.
I love the sign Adam has around his neck to welcome home Steve. I bet it is so glad to have him home.
How fun! The pictures of all of the kids you gave your mom are DARLING! And what a fun surprise :)
A. You look so cute! B. I cannot BELIEVE how big Adam looks now! C. I tried searching to see if Steve has facebook yet. No luck. You guys should get him on that pronto.
See you guys Sunday!
Happy 50th to your mom! That's fun that you guys got to surprise her. And no worries, you lied for the greater good, so it doesn't count.
You look beautiful Jess! Simply glowing!
Glad Steve is home safe and sound. That is a great idea to give kids fruit snacks to be quite and sit still. Great pic
