A Fabulous Mother's Day!

I have to brag for a minute that I really do have a wonderful husband. My first Mother's day this year was perfect! It all started by getting up, feeding Addison, and going for a nice morning walk on the newly connected Brushy Creek Trail in our neighborhood. The weather was perfect in the morning and it felt great to be outside. We came home got ready for church and headed out the door. After church, Derek made reservations at Stubb's for the their Gospel Brunch (something I have been wanting to try for a while now). It was terrific! Great food, entertaining music, and even a "make your own bloody mary bar!" Addison LOVED the music and kept trying to look over the balcony toward the stage as she banged her hands on the table to the beat, kind of. After brunch, Derek and I vowed never to eat again...ha! We headed to the mall so that I could get a couple links taken out of the watch that D and Addie gave me for Mother's Day. After that, we pooled it up....Addison's first time. She loved the water, and loved splashing....but didn't love splashing herself in the face. If only she could have figured out that banging your hands in the water would lead to a face full of water. Even so....she loved it...and that made me very happy, as I will be spending much of the summer there! After the pool, we were all pretty exhausted so we headed home. Addison had dinner and passed out. Derek and I watched our Sunday night TV shows, drank a glass of wine, and passed out too! Thank you husband....you really are the BEST!
