Mom

My mom is the reason I have pictures on my walls, paint on my furniture, rooms arranged, and a plan for my patio. I do not know how I would feel as settled in my new house as I do without her help, guidance, and design expertise. She also came to my rescue to help entertain Mac when Lola had a terrible stomach bug when Dan was out of town. I am SO lucky to have her close by, and we all are grateful for our time with her!
 Saturday painting projects


 Out for a walk with Macky Boy - saving me while I take care of Lola
 A visit from the Elk. Mom and I caught them chasing turkeys around. It was so fun to see!
 Spoiled with sleeping in and breakfast in bed from my sweet family
 Me and my three kids :)
 Low-key afternoon on the patio for Mother's Day dinner
 A turquoise Glassybaby from Nana- she's been dying to add some turquoise to my house ;)


 The kids picked out the sweetest gifts for Nana to bring on her first trip to Europe. Mac gave her an eye mask and ear plugs for the plane, and Lola gave her a turquoise luggage tag.


 Great minds think alike... Nana's first Glassybaby drinkers! She had her first glass of wine in them, but I believe she is looking forward to warm weather and Stevo's famous margaritas in them!
 Picking some lilacs for me and Nana


 Fairy gardens at Nana's
My kiddos (and Dan) spoiled me on Mother's Day. Mac picked out some of my favorite chocolates, Lola gave me a gift certificate to have a girls night at Polka Dot Pottery to paint together, and Dan gave me a gift certificate for a house cleaner. The greatest gift my kids have been giving me is their friendship with each other. They are just so sweet and love spending their time together. I love watching and listening to them each day. If only I could freeze time...
