A mother of a day

We hada wonderful Mother's Day 2009 today.

It began with a brunch at home with all the kids -- and I mean all the kids. That's something that doesn't happen

too often. Karen, Jen, Chris, Aimee and Luis all came to the house -- which, of course, means Emily was there too.

Kimberly's gift to her mom was a delicious meal of finger sandwiches and salads and dips, and Karen contributed with a yummy fruit tree.

After lunch we all posed for a family portrait -- I think it's our first in the 2000s.

Aimee and Emily say cheese.

Then, we were off to the movies to see the latest rendition of the Star Trek saga. I think Paramount will have a new generation of Trek fans on their hands.

Aunt Jen and Uncle Chris pose with Emily.

Here are some photos of the day, and a bit lower some extra shots of you know who.
