Happy Mother's Day!

I found this picture of my Mom and my Grandma from when my Mom was little.Aren't those slingbacks that my Grandma is wearing just the most awesome shoes you've ever seen?

Hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day! I spent Mother's Day with my Mom and I thought of my Grandma. If she were still alive, I would have brought her a two pound box of See's candies (nuts and chews, of course). She always told us not to bring her gifts, but she never turned down candy. She had a bigger sweet tooth than even I do.

My Mom and I celebrated yesterday by having a casual lunch at her house in front of the fire (we had planned to have a picnic at the lake by her house, but since we're in a perpetual state of winter, you know that didn't happen.) I brought her some tulips and hanging basket for her deck. Then we ran some errands (D:Fi is on sale at Ulta right now - I snapped up the buy two get one free deal) and went to Ross. I love going to Ross when I'm not really looking for anything. Then when you end up with a pair of shorts, some flats, a spring jacket and a scarf, you're super happy, instead of being bummed that you couldn't find the perfect pair of brown cords.

It was a nice, laid back way to spend the day.

What did you do for Mother' Day?
