Happy Mother's Day & Birthdays

This was a very special Mother's Day this year. First, Nick made me a special flower and vase at our MOMS Club meeting this week. Well, he said it was for me when he made it, but has taken to playing with it since we brought it home. He is very curious about the blob of play dough that the "stem" (aka straw) of the flower is stuck into to keep it weighted down.

Our Mother's Day celebration was jointly shared with the birthday celebrations of John's parents--Mom's birthday was the day before and Dad's birthday was the day after. We had a lovely dinner at a new restaurant in town, and then came back to our house for fun and festivities.



Our dining room was transformed from
a quiet little room into "Party Central." There we celebrated 2 birthdays and wished 3 moms Happy Mother's Day.


John and Nick gave me some wonderful gifts, in addition to a few soon-to-be-used gift cards. (*wink, wink*) It was a wonderful day that I won't soon forget.
