Good morning everyone! Happy belated Mother’s Day!!! We hope all of the moms out there enjoyed their special day (weekend) and got spoiled and pampered!
So ladies…What did you do for Mother’s Day? Anything fun or exciting?
Hubby spoiled me all weekend! We went out to lunch on Saturday (local steakhouse review) and then shopping to Lowe’s. Yes, I get excited about going to home improvement stores! At Lowe’s he got me a new trellis and 2 new climbing rose bushes which will hopefully grow up the trellis. He also got me some additional outdoor flowers some that we planted into my flower beds and others are in planters on one of my porches. Saturday night I went out with the girls for some fun. Sunday we spent most of our day out in the yard working on gardens and we painted one of our sheds. Sigh, it was 84 degrees and I worked my tail off, so now my body is super sore!
Congrats winners! Happy Mother’s Day, though belated, to you and all the other moms! Sounds like you had a great and extended one. I love “Slowes” as I call it because it takes me forever to get in and out. I had a great day. My son came and made me dinner. He even brought the ingredients! It was delicious and another wonderful memory made! I am truly blessed.
I spent the day with my kids. They helped me bake and cook in the kitchen for dinner and studd. They also surprised me with a puppet theater show. It was really cute. We all just had fun at home.
Lucky ladies! Since I am travelling I did not see my Mom “live” but did Skype her – she was lucky to have the grandkids (my nieces and nephews) with her, though. I missed my fur-baby cat a lot and cannot wait to see him because every day with my Little Buddy is Mothers Day!
It sounds like you had a lovely spring weekend (the high temperature notwithstanding), with Mother’s Day as a bonus! Good for you. I hope your roses grow tall and give you many many fragrant blossoms.
I’m not a mother myself, and my own mother passed away several years ago. Still, I have a hard time on Mother’s Day. I miss her so much, every day, but some days are more poignant than others. I did watch the Formula One race and the Players golf tournament, and enjoyed both.
Good for you on the Mother’s Day! If you enjoy going to a home improvement store, go for it. It’s your weekend! 🙂 We are going out Tuesday for my mother’s day dinner. We don’t go out on the weekends when everything will be full. This way we can have a nice, quiet family dinner. For Mother’s Day, my daughter cooked bacon for breakfast. I love Einstein Bros. green chile bagel. The Einstein closest to us closed and the others don’t offer that. We have to go 40 minutes away for it so I get it once a year about. My daughter decided she was taking me there for lunch. Poor both of us…we got there and they no longer serve the green chiles. 🙁 The day was good though. I relaxed and read in the afternoon. That’s how I wanted to spend the day. We had a wonderful family dinner of pizza and coconut cream pie. Happy Mother’s Day Monday to all! 🙂
Congratulations to the winners. We had a nice and quiet Mother’s Day with beautiful weather. I hope you all had a wonderful day too.
Congratulations to the 4 winners.
Unfortunately my husband was feeling quite ill, so we didn’t do anything for Mother’s Day. He had gotten me some of my favorite dark chocolate covered marzipan. My sons and daughter-in-laws called me and I hope to see one of them next weekend. I went for a short walk because the weather was so beautiful.
I had a very nice Mother’s Day with me getting waited on for once by my Son and daughter. It was a very special day. I am glad that you had a nice Mother’s Day and got some nice plants at Lowe’s.
We are getting ready to move so made several trips to the new house and packed some more. But my daughter surprised me with a really nice Mother’s Day gift this morning!
Glad you had a nice Mother’s Day! We spent a quiet day in (my mom doesn’t really go out much), but at least it was beautiful weather here in NYC. Wish I had a garden to get sore in, this is an apartment with a NW exposure and next to no sun. Oh, well, maybe you can post most pictures of yours, especially the roses!
