Here is a peek at my Mother’s Day weekend fun. It was so nice. Besides picking my way through a box of See’s chocolates (Dee-lish!), I accomplished so much. I know that might sound horrible to some of you but to this momma-in-nesting-mode it was awesome! My kitchen drawers are organized, my front closet is neat and tidy, all the winter gear is washed and put away. My sewing studio is 92% finished and the minivan was shop-vacced to my heart’s delight…ahhh, are you feeling my love of this weekend?
I received lots of hugs and kisses from my three little ones and thanks to preschool I had an unlimited supply of sweet handmade gifts to open all day long, LOVE!! 🙂
I was the lucky recipient of lots of beautiful flowers…these were the perfect addition to decorate my new studio this weekend!
I was adorned with colorful corsages 🙂
And even received a mother/daughter bracelet from Miss Penelope…”hey, we’re twins!”
Pretty gifts from Noah…
Pretty gifts from Penelope…
This year’s questionnaire (from Penny) was hilarious (read Noah’s from last year here!). PS. I do not like hot dogs or pasta (in spaghetti form anyways!) and we almost never eat mac and cheese. Maybe she is giving me a hint? 🙂
Noah’s class’ handmade gifts. PS. the way to my son’s heart is apparently through shopping and treats, lol!
Mother’s Day pictures are my favorite although they are getting harder to take every year! Man, do I love these kids! See last year’s here and holy smokes have they grown since then! Can you see my belly? I’ll have to share a better picture with you soon, only 6 weeks-ish to go, can you believe it!?
I hope you had a wonderful weekend too!
XOXO,

Oh so cute!! Thanks for the link dear!
Precious moments indeed! The kids are getting so big.
By the way, my message from my preschooler said that Mommmy is 40 years old and weighs 40 pounds. I love it!
OMGosh, I love it! Kids really do say the best things, don’t they!!!!
cute! love your green dress!! 🙂
Aww thank you!!
Sounds like someone was nesting this weekend 😉
You bet!! I am on a ROLL!
How awesome that you have the blog post from last year to compare! My mum always reserves Mothers Day as garden day – we get up early, head to the garden store and stock up on all the seedlings she needs to make her gorgeous garden spectacular for another year. It’s a great tradition.
Oh, I love that tradition! Too bad where I live we can’t really plant our garden for another two weeks due to the stinkin’ frost!! So glad you have such good memories!!
Love your family picture! Happy late mother’s day! 🙂
thanks Emily! Hope you had a super duper day too!
LOVE those interviews! Mine said that I was 100 years old and I like to say, “NO!”
Your kids are adorable! Looks like you got some nice new jewellery!
