Mom’s Day

 

I originally started typing this post yesterday (Sunday) but didn’t finish because of the

fun Mothers Day activities. So here it is now! 

Yesterday I was lucky enough to spend the day with my parents. In the morning my

dadmade breakfast for the three of us, including eggs benedict. This was my first time

having it and I loved it.

My dad switched out the usual Canadian bacon with chicken for me, which was a

delicious change.

 

Saturday we went out and bought a blood orange tree and a lemon tree as well as

several smaller veggie plants.

Yesterday was all about planting them!My dad did a great job working on the garden for

my mom, I can’t wait to see the blood orange tree grow!! 

 

The weather was a little colder and cloudier than the rest of the week, but we had

planned to barbeque and we decided to stick with it! On the menu: bbq chicken, ribs, coleslaw,

corn and peach & blueberry pie for dessert. 

I wasn’t able to snap a picture of my meal, but I had a couple ribs, half of a bbq

chicken breast, corn (haven’t had this in way too long!!) and some coleslaw set aside

without the dressing. I love my mom’s coleslaw(cabbage, craisens, toasted walnuts,

sliced apples) and like it on it’s own without the dressing.

For dessert we had peach and blueberry pie and homemade whipped cream.

 

After dessert my mom and I sat down with a cup of peppermint tea and watched Stepbrothers.

The movie was so funny and it was the perfect way to end the day!

I hope you all had a beautiful, relaxing Sunday.

I’m ready for this week to get started, one week closer to summer!!

 

My mom is the most hilarious, supportive, caring and loving person I know. Mom, I hope

you know how apprecaiated you are everyday. Happy Mothers Day!

 

p.s. the formatting on this post is all funky and I can’t figure out why. I’m sorry!!

  1. I like the creative formatting–it makes the post look like a Mother’s day poem, haha. Love the image up top, and that I’m not the only one with a day-late M-day post ;D

      Haha! It was so frustrating, for some reason the words in my post were hidden at the end of each line so I had to fit it into a tiny space. Technology drives me crazy!
