Way too many awesome shots of this most magical day. While neither toad they caught turned into either a prince or princess they were charmed beyong belief to have caught them themselves over and over at the Botanic Gardens today. One of my best days ever. We were in heaven.
After a crazy emotionally and physically draining week, still being sick, we needed a day out of the house. The kids and I spent it at the zoo and had a marvelous time. Afterwards, this little princess was out. My perfect little sleeping beauty.
Happy Mother’s Day! We spend the day enjoying a lovely BBQ totally prepared by my loving husband. While the day had its’ ups and downs with sick fractious kiddos and tender emotions, mostly it was up. Gorgeous time at the park playing, swinging, climbing slides, and playing frisbee. The pick of the day had to be this rare shot of my mom, two brothers, me and my boy.
My precious little girl. She was being so cute while we were exploring our backyard together.
My Nana's Memorial Table. She painted the painting in the background, there is a poem she wrote, a small part of her rock collection, a beautiful feather she cherished from her last trip to the beach, photographs from her childhood and with her husband, and an entire box of love letters she and my Papa wrote each other while he was in the army. And, of course, books for the nearly two hundred guests to sign and share their memories in. It was a beautiful Mass and following Celebration. Rest in Peace, Nana. We will love you always.
Tonight we said a remembrance Rosary for my Nana. It was so beautiful to hear everyone's memories of her. She blessed so many people in so many different ways.
