Happy Weekend, Happy Mama






I had a whole weekend of wonderful time with my Hubs and Greysen ... and even a little me time. Friday night I spent the evening with dear friends that inspire me on so many levels to be better people, better women, better Mama. Andrew stayed home that evening with Greysen so that I could spend some much-needed time at the Wine Bar.

On Saturday, we made it out to the Archie Bray for their annual Mother's Day event - sunny day, ceramic artists, wood-oven pizza, clay arts for kids, face-painting and flowers and plants in beautifully made ceramic pots/vases.... I love the beautiful vase and flower we brought home. I hope to get a variation of that gift every Mother's Day (hint, hint). And then we had a picnic in our nearby little park. The day was perfect.




On Sunday, Mother's Day, Greysen slept in late, so I slept in late ... what a great gift. Hubs made us breakfast, local delicious bacon. Mmmmmm.... bacon. I went for a run in the hills for a good hour. Sweet me time. Then we went for a hike in the hills to get Greysen outside. The rain even held off until we got back.








Then I planted the seeds we'll be putting in our garden while Greysen took a (short) nap and Hubs aerated the lawn. Then, Hubs made us another delicious meal. I didn't cook once today. Now, I'm watching Hubs and Greysen play. Hubs reads the Forest Tracks books to G and he imitates every sound the forest animals makes: Rat-A-Tat-Tat - Greysen imitates in a whisper: Tat-tat-tat. And it repeats with the SPLASH of the racoon and the GRRRR of the bear. I could watch them all night.



I've had a rejuvenating, wonderful Mother's Day weekend. I think EVERY weekend should be like this one. Thank you Hubs and Greysen for making my whole weekend special; and making my every day and every moment special. I love you both so much.
