A very LATE Mother’s Day post.  It’s been a crAzzzy week.

The Mother’s Day celebration began on Friday afternoon when Leah Rose came home with this heavy package wrapped in thick heavy paper.  I opened it up, and it was a plant.  I had forgotten that the school sends home a little plant for moms.  This was last year’s …

Here is this year’s plant…

It reads “Mom, Your Love is Planted in My Heart”. 

I couldn’t believe how fast this sprouted.  It’s only been a week.  Maybe I need to get out my little seed packets and the tray to get some flowers started, something I’ve been putting off.

Friday night for dinner was Leah Rose’s choice, and it was Outback.   I had my usual, Victoria’s Filet, after pigging out on a Bloomin’ Onion.  Those are soooo good!

Saturday morning, we got up really early and went out to my mama’s house to work on cleaning up my daddy’s sheds.  This has been an ongoing project, and we are close to getting finished.  But I was only able to work a couple hours because the humidity was getting up as the  morning went by.

Saturday evening, we met my Mama at Longhorn’s Steakhouse, my favorite restaurant, and had a very nice meal.  I tried the new Shrimp & Crab Gratin & Flo’s Filet. It was delicious.  We gave Mama a $50 gift certificiate, for ..  guess?…  Longhorn’s!.  It her favorite restaurant too.

Mama gave me a lovely card…

 AND a rose bush.  YAY!  I’ve been wanting one for a very long time.  Now I’ve got to plant it, hopefully, I can do it this weekend.

The manager from Longhorn’s stopped by our table and presented us with these coupons.  Very nice touch, I thought, to give the moms there a little gift.  I’ll probably be using it this weekend.  LOL.

 Now I’m just realizing there were no mommy and daughter pictures from the evening.  I am going to have to get a good picture of the 3 of us, I just need a photographer.  LOL.

My 21 year old son wasn’t able to join us because he’s a little under the weather, but that’s okay, we’ll see him soon.

I hope all you moms had a wonderful, magical, beautiful Mother’s Day!

Current Mood: Happy
