Mother's Day was absolutely wonderful. We had great weather, the kids took good naps and James took care of me. We've had something on our high-desire, low-priority list for the yard for a while. On Saturday I almost bought a solution at a friend's garage sale, but when I took too long and it was picked up by someone else we started plotting another solution. Matthew was a big helper:
And definitely enjoyed the final product(s):
We spent a wonderful evening in the yard making dinner and playing around. The best part of this gift is the memories I can see it making in the future and evenings spent hanging out around it with friends and family. Matthew showed off his animal impressions. A Buffalo (raised shoulders):
More Buffalo:
A Monkey (waving its arms):
A Giraffe (bending its neck):
Clapping like a seal (Catherine likes to join in on this one):
Pure cuteness:
As always, followed by pure mischief:
As always in the Watson house, followed by some light reading:
Catherine spent all morning at breakfast on Mother's Day flirting with an old couple. It was really sweet because I just glanced over and smiled and the woman apologized because they "just couldn't help it because she was so cute." This definitely wasn't the first time she's caused a stir and created trouble. Really though, who can say no to baby blues like this?
