Mothers Day Weekend and a Cute NSV!
I had an awesome Mother's Day Weekend! My kids treated my Husband and I to a Saturday at the Walker Art Museaum and Sculpture Garden. A couple of them had to work Sunday so we had an awesome picnic and a great afternoon. They planned the whole thing and the final suprise of the day was planter flowers covering my Son's counter for me when we got back!
My sister, whom I raised from the time she was 7 and I was 19, had a BBQ and invited us for dinner on Sunday. Noisy, lots of kids and good healthy food...just the way I like it!.
When we got there, my little 11 year old niece, whom I adore...asked me, "Ummm Auntie?? I don't know if this is good manners or not...but can I ask you something??" I thought in my head..UH OH! She asked me "You look skinny...have you lost weight??" I got teary eyed and told her yes....then I kissed and hugged the stuffins right outta her!!

Too sweet - kids are the best! We had our two oldest home from college (still two little ones at home - 9 and 4) and enjoyed a nice, quiet weekend at home just laughing and spending time together. I can relate to helping raise family. My mom died at 44 and my lil sis was still in school. We don't deny our family, right? Hugs to ya!
Thank you so much Jewel! My Son is 22 and my girls are 24. It's different now then when they were little. I got many burnt toast breakfast in bed suprises when they were little, but now they plan nice events and thats pretty wonderful, too. I think my biggest thrill was them being together...picking on each other...running around and laughing..made me smile!
Hi Linda!! Big hugs!
Sorry we couldn't make it, we had stuff going on we couldn't reschedule! It's Tom's first day back at work today!! He's doing well. the new hip is doing great!! No knee surgery for right now!
If I don't talk to you before, have a great time in Vegas!! You know I should be going with you, right?? We'd have more fun than it's legal to have!!
