Happy Mother's Day!

Wow! What a beautiful warm Sunny Day! Except we forgot to take pictures. My husband made a great breakfast of Egg Omelets and Hash Browns. Then he made me, my mother and my MIL BBQ Chicken on the grill. It was tasty. He bought me a Gorgeous Calla Lilly for the Garden. I really need to take a picture. I have never seen anything like it. Wow! And a gift card to have my nails done with my Darling Daughter.

Darling Daughter made me 2 cards and a bookmark and then bought me a card from Hallmark. WoW! Three cards from one child!

I am blessed!

Here is the card I made for my mother. It is a pocket card. I did not intend to irritate but it was kind of fun watching her try to open it. ;-) You would still think I was a teenager with a little bit of rebellion going on. But she enjoyed it the card. There was not much room to write. So it was short and sweet and the Gift Card was behind the flowers.
