And THAT was Mother’s Day weekend 2011! Honestly, aside from being sick with a nasty cold, it was a great weekend. I couldn’t taste the heaping breakfast that I was served in bed BUT it looked amazing! Cole told me it was yummy as he shoveled my eggs into his mouth. That kid is a great eater as long as it’s off of someone else’s plate!

The gifts that I had told Ansley I wanted got a little lost in translation but eventually found their way to me. Dad was trying to figure out why I wanted “pretty aphids” and a “flour swifter” and more importantly, where he would buy such items. I schooled Ansley on the words “apron” and “sifter” then things were back on track! They did very well and I might never take off my cupcake apron.

After spending the morning together, dad took the kiddos to the park so mom could veg on the couch watching DVR’d medical dramas and “find yourself” chick flicks. Then they were off to the movies! I got some much needed downtime, especially since I was sick.

They did such a good job on Mother’s Day that I decided to make them “slurping spaghetti and meatballs”! It was a wonderful weekend and I am so lucky to have such an amazing family. I hope all of your mother’s day fun made you feel as blessed as I do.
