Hi everyone,
Nice to hear about your Mother's day....and all your adventures. Loved Sharon's description of us all...
Hi Theresa..she got us spot on I think...
Gilli..Mother's Day when the kids are young are the sweetest I think. The children really get a kick out of doing special things for Mom.
Mine was wonderful ..all the food I cooked was a success..and I had leftovers for yesterday for me. My three children and their families were here..except for my eldest grandson who was away in Pennsylvania. But my other grandson brought his girlfriend..so that made 13 of us. I am so happy when we all can get together.

My eldest son brought the "traditional hanging basket" he said..it is a beauty..lots of trailing lobelia and trailing verbena with geraniums in the centre.

My second son gave me a candle lamp..green apple aroma with a pretty frosted shade...and a bag of pinks seeds with medium to grow them right in the bag..I have planted those already.

I gave each of my DIL's and my daughter a hanging basket with the most vivid fushia geraniums in them.

My daughter gave me a zero gravity lounger..so comfy..I look forward to spending time reading a book in the sunshine. Yesterday I sat in it with my coffee for about 10 minutes..so many little jobs to do around the garden...
I'm still bringing pots and do-dads out and placing them..making plans for what I will plant in them.
I fertilized all the roses, cut grass, timmed some a few things, dug afew weeds, touched up a little statue with some paint..etc. etc.

I wore myself out..so much that when my friend invited me to come over for a game of Scrabble in the evening..I said I'm sorry..too tired..had to watch Dancing with the stars..with one eye open..LOL
Betty..did you manage to stay awake?

This is my daughter's family..me in my new lounger..
