Mother's day outing
Comments (8)Thanks everyone. I was so excited when I came home and posted the pics, I forgot to mention how I hoped you all were having a great mother's day also, whether in the garden or elsewhere! Northspruce, I'm just lucky to be going with people who know where to look. It's kind of like going on a treasure hunt. Lots of fun.

Comments (26)Luckygal, where in the world are you? Somewhere near a beach obviously--but which one. Sorry no good luck on the TS shopping, do keep trying! Jeanne, I have two baker's racks outside, one is a corner unit--but neither look nearly as cute as yours with your collections and vignettes. I need to work on mine I think. That is so neat that you do the Farmer's market too. Candy, I'm another one who does tablescapes for my "imaginary" friends. DH will only eat at the table when we have company--rest of the time he prefers to eat in front of the tv. Karen, I didn't do a table, but I did glue a little cheese tray and glass dome on a pedestal and decorate it--can I get any points for that? ;o) Kathleen, the rooster napkins like in your photo that you shared with me are some of my favs. We don't do sit down breakfast often, but I like to just sit the table and display them on the plates because they look so cute....See MoreWill yours be red or white this Mother's Day?
Comments (32)We always did it for our mothers years ago, but not roses. Usually it was blossoms from apple trees or any flower that we could find. I didn't see a single one at church on Sunday. In fact I had completely fogotten about it. However the children did give a flower to every mother there. I got a lovely purple carnation. I'm in Canada too, so it isn't just a local tradition. Mine would have been white as well. My mother died in 1974 and I still miss her so very much. She was a wonderful person and the longer she is gone, the more wonderful I realize that she was....See MoreMother's Day is coming..what are your plans?
Comments (28)Heck yea Kathy, Move over! I'm with ya. Actually I am in a dilemma over Mother's Day. On Saturday my life long friend (we met the summer before kindergarten) is having a baby shower (her first - FINALLY). The shower is in a a town halfway between my town and my moms. I'm 85 miles from my mom. I want to just go from the shower on to my moms Saturday night. That way I can spend The day with my mom and my grandma. Really the draw is my grandma. I can't imagine I'll have many more with her. But, I too have kids that always want to make me stay in bed while they and their father make me breakfast. They always make a big show out of it. It really makes them so happy to do that and like mentioned above, they wont want to do that much longer. I'm so torn. (thumping head on desk)...See MoreChi
