mother's day weekend...


I enjoyed a beautiful Mother's Day weekend!
Jim and I went for a late lunch ~ early dinner on Friday by the waterfront in Plymouth.
Saturday while my fisherman was wetting a line, I spent the day puttering around my campsite.
On Sunday, Jaclyn came down for a visit and brought me these lovely flowers...


And when I got home this old treasure was waiting for me on the back deck...


My girl knows what I like!
I can't wait to go flower shopping this week!

We brought some lobsters home and threw some steaks on the grill too.  We enjoyed a few glasses of wine and watched the sun set.
It was a perfect weekend!

Jake had to work on Sunday, but he left me a special gift to open when I got home...



I can't wait to start watching!

So, tell me, how was your Mother's Day?
Thanks for visiting ~ have a wonderful week!!

Sandi,
The simple joys of spending time with those you love are the greatest gifts I recieved!!! A new Rose Bush from our son...a new fridge from my "Mr. Ed" (whether I wanted one or not)...Worship and rest. Mother's Day was truly blessed!
I adore your flower cart. . .enjoy Downtown Abbey! Lovely, tranquil post!
Fondly,
Pat

I saw Rachel Ashwell at the High Point furniture market a few years ago..I was awh-struck as well..dumb founded mreo like it! I just stood there & watched her walk right by...no one was around that even knew who she was...I was like...WHAT??? you don't know who Rachel Ashwell is???? Funny!

So happy to hear you enjoyed your mother's day so splendidly Sandi. Your children do indeed know you well - such wonderful gifts! The wine and surf/turf on the deck sounds fabulous, too. :)

You really did have a wonderful Mother's Day Sandi! The hydrangea was such a beautiful gift, and will look so great on your new flower cart : )

I loved seeing your trip to Brimfield. Oh gosh, my heart almost stopped when I saw that settee in the first photo! I also loved all the pretty chairs you took pictures of. I just don't get to see great pieces like that here in Idaho, sure wish I did though : )

Thank you for always leaving such sweet comments for me. You always make my day when you come by!
sending many hugs...
