A Mama's Special Day

My Mother's Day started with church.  Just me and my boys and one trying very very hard with all his might to contain himself in church.  I had to tell him to whisper quite often but for the most part he spent in my arms and we had a rhythmic little flow going and he was sure to hand me my artificial rose afterwards.  LOVE.

My mom had all of us over on Mother's Day.  It was a beautiful day and a day I was thankful to be with my family.  My mom set up a beautiful display on her deck and we had a quaint but GIRLY brunch.  The best kind! 

Have I told you how much I love brunches?!  My fave!  Egg, cheese, ham casserole, fresh fruit salad, fresh strawberry salad, sausage, blueberry muffins just to name a few things that were on the menu...I won't even go into the fabulous coffee cakes or patiza that was there...Just know that it was Delish!


Aunt Amy made all the special ladies hand-made corsages for the day.  It was a fabulous touch.


And my mom had a vase of roses for each of the special moms at the party to take home.....it was a beautiful day!



Of course a brunch calls for mimosas and bloody mary's and just the right bartender to make it complete...He's been taught by the best you know - Sidetracks and all...



And of course more LOVE to share especially on Mother's Day

Pure Love on this Mother's Day

Special moms make special people  (Aunt Kathy and Mary Rose)




And this mom is always ready for a kiss from this little guy...They are just the BEST!



And I must tell you the gift I was given on this Mother's Day from my hubby...Nate surprised me with a diamond wedding band to go with the one I already have.  So special.  I've been wanting one for a long time and it looks beautiful...So now I can wear my diamond ring in the middle, one diamond band in the back and one diamond band in the front...I've got some BLING baby!

The picture doesn't do it justice at all and yes I need a manicure...
 Sidenote:  Nate told me I'm good with gifts for the rest of the year...ha!




Dee Dee and Papa Davey enjoying the day...


And this one, he thoroughly enjoyed himself and was high off sprite this Mother's Day...

So Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there.  I hope you had a wonderful day just as you deserve.

I feel so lucky and blessed to have ALL these women in my life.
