Wonderful Mother's Day

I had a wonderful Mother's Day thanks to my awesome family!! My day started off with breakfast in bed prepared by Abbi and Shane. Hubby was sleeping next to me (he didn't get home til 5am, he had to pick up his parents from the airport and they were coming back from a trip to Ireland, whew!). Anyway, my beautiful oldest kids made me a yummy egg sandwich with veggie sausage and cheese with fresh strawberries and of course, a Diet Coke. Next, I received an abundance of homemade cards from my kiddos, that brought tears to my eyes.


(Do you see how huge I am in Shane's card?? That didn't bring tears to my eyes, I just laughed at how sweetly honest little ones can be!!)

Next, we got up and went to my in laws to have an awesome brunch. The men cooked an awesome breakfast with all the trimmings. Then me and the girls ventured outside for some fun by the pond. Shane stayed in and played with all of John's old Legos, he had a blast!! There were tons of tadpoles in the pond and a few ended up coming home with us!! I love being out there, it is sooo peaceful!! I also received a pair of sapphire celtic earrings from my inlaws and the boys got celtic crosses and the girls got claddaugh rings. It was a wonderful day!!

This is where John and I were married almost 14 years ago. (My in-laws house)
