Mother's Day 2011

We had a super-great day today. Started with some orange juice, fresh squeezed by my hubby. Then, we piled #TheTeen and @kelseythedog into the Swaggerwagon and headed for Placerita Canyon... but not without a stop at Starbucks for my mama's day mocha!

It was a ridiculously gorgeous day at Placerita. Lots of wildflowers, and -- at the risk of sounding too poetic -- the rich scent of sage in the air!

A lovely Mother's Day. :-D

Mother's Day Luncheon @ Middle School!

The Boy's redonkulously awesome Middle School hosted a *lovely* Mother's Day lunch for all us moms ... and even a few grandmas! It was sooooo nice. We had many delicious foods to choose from, and TWO cakes! We all played a rousing game of "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?", in which we all discovered that the middle schoolers ARE, but the moms have forgotten some stuff. :-0

Another Mother's Day prezzie...

Late in the day on Mother's Day, The Ev let me open the present he'd made for me at school:

SOOOOOO beautiful! Thank you so much, my baby. I absolutely adore it. xoxoxo

Mother's Day Fun, 2009

I had a lovely Mother's Day!

After a breakfast of hamentaschen and tea, we went out into the backyard, where my present was bestowed upon me:

Next, we took my new camera and the dog to the lovely Simi Valley Dog Park:

I spent the rest of the day Facebookin', watchin' baseball, and generally chillaxin.

Then Bri made me a beautiful dinner.

Thanks so much for a great day, boys. I ::heart:: you. :-)
