Followed with a yummy breakfast of cinnamon rolls and sausage.
Next a wonderful time at church, which included a cute song song by the primary kids.
They even had bells, each colored bells was a different note. Ryder had a green bell and when the chorister pointed to the green dot he rang his bell and said "I did it" right in the middle of the song. It was completely adorable.
When we got home from church, I sat on the couch and played games on my iPad while Eric made an amazing dinner.
Grilled chicken and asparagus, fully loaded twice baked potatoes, and cheesy garlic bread. I was a happy mama.
Then I opened the rest of the presents from the kids, a new pancake griddle (after 12 years mine was no longer stick-proof), two necklaces (that Alex picked out), a new pair of sunglasses (that Lucas picked out) some chocolate and cute homemade presents. Eric already gave me a present a week ago of upgraded memory for my computer.
It was a wonderful Mother's Day, I was fully spoiled and am so grateful to be a mother.
Looks like a great day! My hubby is not much of a cooker but he started breakfast for us while we were at Church and that is a bonus! I love the homemade gifts more than the ones that cost money, at my place I mean!
ReplyDeleteHey especially if they aren't much of a cooker and take the effort to do it that is awesome!
DeleteLooks like a great day - recapping mine later this week. We cook a lot of pancakes, mostly for dinner, so maybe I need a griddle. Is it electric? But then I really love waffles and want a waffle maker, too. I have too many kitchen tools/appliances, need more room!
ReplyDeleteNope it is just one that goes on the stove. I do have an electric one but I honestly always forget about it and never use it.
DeleteLooks perfect! I absolutely love that picture of you with you kids, it's just so good of everyone!! Todd made me breakfast too, and my dad made us dinner. Gotta love a day like that!
ReplyDeleteYes, I was so happy with how that turned out too. Good job Todd!
DeleteOh wow, sounds like a fabulous Mother's Day!! You have a great family!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteSo the real question is - did you like the necklaces and sunglasses? :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day!
I actually totally did! In the past Alex has picked out jewelry that has been a little much for my taste but I loved the ones she picked, already worn one of the neckless twice (and I am not an everyday jewelry kind of girl) and the glasses are awesome, comfortable and fit great. I was totally happy with what they picked
DeleteBeautiful Mothers Day you had! Love how each of your kids picked out something to give you. Sweet! Blessed you are :)
ReplyDeleteThank you!!
DeleteLooks like you had a wonderful Mother's Day! It's so fun that each of your kids picked out something special for you :)
