Lovely Day

Mother's Day was amazing!  My husband and Emmie made it so special.  I got flowers and cards and a huge homemade breakfast (spinach, mushroom, and onion omelette - yum!)

Nothing says springtime like tulips

Then I was taken on a "joyride" to one of my favorite places - the Vera Bradley store! 

*Lucky* me! My husband says I only get one first Mother's Day :-)

The weather was gorgeous here in Chicagoland.  Warm, and not a cloud in the sky.  Everywhere we went, people said "Happy Mother's Day" to me.  I felt like a rock star!  This holiday is better than a birthday, because half the time people forget the date.  But everyone knows this one. 

We ended the day by visiting both our moms, who always love to see the baby.  It was both of their first Mother's Day as a Grandma.  Congratulations to them, for all the work and love they've given over the years.  They deserve the joy being a Grandma brings. 

It was a perfect day spent with family.  One that I will never forget.
