MOTHER'S DAY

Late, late, late posting this, but I have been busy and not on the computer much of late. Now that I can read most of my e-mails on my cellphone, I tend to get on my computer loss often. Anyway. I had a very nice Mother's Day weekend. Jacob surprised me Fri. night and was here when I returned from taking the cats to the vet for their shots. He had parked his car on the street behind our house, so I wouldn't see it - Little Sneak! Plus I had called to see if Harold wanted me to pick-up some dinner at Arby's, which I did and I had asked if he had called yet to say if he was coming home or not and was told "No!" Come to find out he was already here (but that cost him to get no food - LOL!).

Saturday I went to a tea (not red hat related for once) at the Rising Sun Tavern. A friend of mine that worked there had put it together and asked me to come. I did dress up with a hat, but for once it wasn't a red hat. I wore one of mom's old hats that I had kept after she passed away. I felt so very close to her that day.

That is me in the black dress and white hat in front.

My friend Jo is in the center in her colonial wear.

Later on Sat., Jacob, Karli and Harold took me out for an early Mother's Day dinner at Carraba's Italian. It was delicious. They gave me my presents then.

My Mother's Day presents. The large dragonfly glass and flowers are from Harold, the smaller one was from Karli. The Password Organizer and Pink Ribbon Note pad are from Jacob.

On Mother's Day we grilled some chicken and sausage before Jacob had to head back to NC.
