Mother's Day 2009

I'm back from my (unintentional) blog break! I have several posts to catch up on & I'm looking forward to my 400th post very soon!!!!!


First thing in the morning, Wayne and Mason gave me a beautiful sterling silver heart-shaped locket necklace and a card that made me cry! It was one of those recordable ones and when I opened it, it was Mason's sweet little voice saying, "Happy Mother's Day" then Wayne, "We love you." Then Mason repeated, "We love you." I started bawling before the whole thing had finished playing! So sweet!

I visited my own Mom on Sat. since she & the rest of my immediate family went to Fort Smith to visit my Grandma on Sunday. They ended up getting hit by a teen driver in an intersection while going to eat lunch. The girl then hit another car, so 3 cars were involved. Thankfully, no one was seriously injured. Just sore with bruises. What a lovely Mother's day they had! :(

Meanwhile, Wayne, Mason & I ate lunch at Colton's steakhouse then headed to Wayne's parent's to see his Mom, Clova, for Mother's Day. Although it was a little chilly, we spent the afternoon sitting outside on their covered porch, visiting & relaxing by the firepit. Mason had fun playing in the sand and "driving" Grandpa Bill's dump truck (& honking the horn!) I just had to take pictures of my MIL's beautiful Iris', Peonies, & Climatis! I had a good (3rd ever) Mother's day!
