Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day.

Mr. M. and I cooked for a Mother's Day brunch.

We had a wonderful time, as I always do when I spend time with family.

After everyone left, Mr. M. and the kids took me to the nursery to look at some trees.

I think I have narrowed down the search.

This is a Brandywine Crab Apple tree.

The buds look like little roses before they bloom.

I could look at this picture all day long.

A whole tree of rosebuds!

All but one of the trees was sold out at the nursery.  

Mr. M. was not as enamored with the tree as I was and he liked the Prairiefire Crab Apple better.

I may just have to buy one for me and the other tree for him.

Part of being a MOM is just letting your kids try new things.

Today we had hail on and off again throughout the day.

My little guy said he had never seen the stuff and could he run around outside in it.

I told him sure, he thought it was funny to have the hail pelting him on the back.

That is what being a MOM is about.

Experiencing the little things that make them smile.

I hope all you moms, daughters, granddaughters had a wonderful day.

A Little Bit of Color

Spring must be getting to me.

I am letting a little bit of color in.

or

Maybe because it is almost Mother's Day.

Happy Mother's Day!

I have the table in the dinning room all set for Mother's Day breakfast.

They are already planning on what dad is going to make for us.

My little guy is so excited for me to have Mother's Day,

 he wanted to know if I could have it a day earlier so I could open what he made me at school.

and 

MY BIRTHDAY IS ON MONDAY!

I have started bringing some color into each room.

I love how the colors pop against the white.

I brought out some of my favorite rose tea cups and saucers.

The kids love drinking tea from them, it makes them feel special they tell me.

I will even have them get dressed up for the morning.

One of my favorite rose pitchers.

Dainty little roses.

Thank you for stopping by.

Happy Mother's Day!

Flowers from me to you.

Flowers for Mother's Day

Today was such a nice day, the sun was finally shinning, so I went flower shopping. 

Nothing better to get you in a good mood than to be around beautiful flowers.

While I was at one our local farmer's market I came across the cutest moss purse.

Oh I just had to use them for my centerpiece for the Mother's Day brunch I am hosting for my family on Sunday.

I am almost finished, I think I will add a pretty bow. 

Didn't it turn out cute.

I also picked out projects for the kids to make for the Grandmas.

They embellished a print on canvas with some flowers.

Adorable flower pins sealed with a kiss inside the locket.



I think these will look great on the table. 

I also had a little time to visit my friend Sally and I found lots of new treasures I will share with you on another day.

The rest of my day was spent in my gardens weeding.  It feels so good to be getting some gardening done.  I am hoping the weather will be good for the weekend so we can be outside for awhile.
