Happy Mother's Day

Mother's Day Weekend kicked off Friday afternoon at 12pm!! I took half a day off work so I could take my mom to lunch. I left work and went and picked her up. It was a beautiful day in Tulsa, perfect temperature and skies. I wanted the restaurant to be somewhere we had never been. So, I took her to The Blue Rose and we enjoyed a great atmosphere and food.  It's definitely a place we will go back too! 

On Saturday morning we woke up and went to breakfast at one of our favorite breakfast spots, First Watch. Once we were finished with breakfast the boys went there separate ways and mom and I headed to old town Jenks. We spent majority of the day antique shopping. Mom and I were on a mission find several decorative touches for my house. We lucked out and found an old early 1900's milk bottle from Pet's milk. Which by far was my favorite find of the day. Other treasures that we found that day were an old washboard, 1908 jar, an antique glass mirror and a 1924 University of Oklahoma geometry book. Jared loved this book, and it all for him.

When mom and I got home from shopping I had a beautiful present sitting on my front porch!
My brother is so thoughtful. He sent me flowers in honor of Mother's Day!! Being the mother of Chip, Chance and Louis is full time job! Not shortly after I received more beautiful flowers from my wonderful husband. Then I had the joy of taking a Saturday afternoon nap.  Round dinner time we headed to another new restaurant here in Tulsa. Waterfront Grille! It was delicious.


Next weekend we will celebrate Mother's Day with Jared's mom.  We are so excited to have her here and all the kids here for the weekend. They are coming in Saturday morning and spending the night with us. Audrey and I are going to run some arrends with Hannah and Jesse while the oldest boys, Jared and Gary will be building our new covered patio.


Other special women in our life!! Each of you hold a special place in our hearts
