it turned out to be a very nice mother’s day.
scott made me this card . . .
supermom.
very cute.
friday night we went to my parents’ house.
my mom had an ice cream Yoda cake for scott.
it was a big hit.
early saturday morning my mom peeked in the door and said “megan there is a garage sale that dad says we have to go to . . . wake up”
i got up, got dressed and we were there within 30 minutes.
we scored big time.
cool house stuff but
mostly clothes for lauren.
it was too much fun.
when we came back craig said “i am going to tell you there is a great garage sale every saturday. you have never gotten up that fast before.”
ha ha ha
we did a bit more shopping.
looking for antiques – found a fun stool for the craft room.
in the afternoon talby, annie & i went to my nieces birthday party.
macy is 6 & maya will be 1.
macy was loving the attention and the gifts and the cake and the playtime.
that is exactly what she is supposed to do!
the blurry picture captures the crazy fun we had.
then all 7 duerksens went to Elizabeth’s graduation party.
she is the beautiful girl in the b&w photo on the right.
she is soon to be an elementary teacher.
all grown up.
such a sweet girl.
her puppy was everyone’s favorite toy at the party.
it was good to see craig’s family too.
our children drank lots of pop and filled up on cake.
we got in the car at almost 10:00 pm.
(2 hour drive)
it was one of worst rides home in history.
note to self: no more pop & cake for kids at night.
And then mother’s day today.
it was just nice.
quiet.
peaceful.
i went to our nursery (by myself)
and came home with pretty flowers to get planted this week.
that is a wonderful way to spend some time on mother’s day.
it was even hot.
loved it.
