Mother's Day

This is my first "real" Mother's Day where I get something from my children.

I have a child in heaven, but you don't really get mother's day cards under those circumstances. And last year, we had visited and knew the boys were coming but they didn't actually move in until June.

So close.

So today was a special day.



The boys got me cards that make noise, of course. And they wanted to get me flowers. So they picked them out. Too cute.

TJ got me Carrie Underwood Tickets....bad news is the concert is not until December 4th.

Yeah.

For Real.

But when December is here, it will be awesome!!!! :)

We went to Mankato for our 3rd or 4th.....I can't remember how long we've done it now....annual "Meet mom at the Mankato Hy-Vee for lunch on Mother's Day". It's been a fun tradition. There's not usually as many people there as other restaurants. And there's lots to choose from, so most everyone is able to get what they want.

Over all, I was able to spend the day with the people that I love, and so I'd say....


It's been a pretty awesome day!!!
