Happy Mother's Day!

My Mother's Day weekend started with Taryn bringing this adorable potted flower home from Preschool for me. I love it! Her little thumbprints are what the ladybugs are made out of. So stinkin cute! She had the biggest smile and was so proud when she gave it to me. :)

Sunday morning we had a yummy breakfast and then we opened some gifts. Taryn wrapped up her baby Dumbo she got from Disneyland, for me for Mother's Day.



John and the kids gave me some green eye shadow, a new water bottle, and a exercise kit that had a stretch band and resistance bands in it. I had been eyeing it. It was great!
After gifts we went to church, came home, had a yummy dinner, then I went on a walk (all alone). I found a nice grassy hill to sit on, with a view of the mountains, and then I watched the sun set. It was AMAZING. I had like 3 or 4 hours all to myself. Happy Mother's day to ME!!! ha ha ha When I got home we called our mothers and expressed our love. It was a great day!

  1. The little ladybug pot is so so cute. She should be proud of it, she did a great job! It's so funny to me how mom's just LOVE time to themselves more than anything. I'll let you know when I finally understand the feeling :)

    You are a great mom Carla! I'm glad you had a nice Mothers Day.
