Mother's Day Sunday!

This morning and my entire day with Scott, Lane and Bella was awesome. Bella came down the hallway this morning holding a beautiful tulip plant. She said "Mommy, mmm smell good." Then we got dressed and went into the kitchen.
Here we are when they handed me my card and gift.


They got me a cute card that sang.



Bella was great and showing it to me while Lane tried reading it aloud.


Scott and the kids went shopping and Lane picked out a beautiful necklacethat spelled MOM and the "O" in Mom were diamonds.He was so proud to tell me that "Dad didn't know what to buy so he picked it out."


Then Scott bought me a beautiful Black watch with diamonds around face.
I love it!!



Then it was off to church to see my Mom and Dad. Here they are playing on the church steps after the service. By the way my parents would have never let me play on the alter after church, but I guess it's different with grandkids.

Lanerbugs and GiGi.


Swinging Bella.


Lane, Nannie and Bella.


Mom, Me and the Kiddos.


Me and my Mom.


Me and my beautiful children! I love you both so much!


After church we had lunch at Tinsley's Fried Chicken!


After church we went home for a nap and then woke up and went and ate at Lupe Tortilla and the kids played in the sandbox. What a great day.


Also I forgot to mention last night after returning from Dallas Scott took me to my favorite steakhouse, Perry's, for dinner. Just the two of us. It was a great Mother's Day dinner alone and we had such a good time and great conversation. Thanks to John for watching the kiddos for us!

What a great Mother's Day!! I love the pics of you opening your cards. The kids are so cute standing there so excited. I was so surprised to see you walk in church!And, yes, grandkids do get to do things our kids didn't get to do. You'll see, one day and you will smile, remembering what I'm telling you! :)

You had a wonderful Mother's Day! You are such a great Mommy! I know your kids, all three love you so much! You are an amazing example of a loving Mommy. I think we need to confront our parents about the alter thing, seriously, we would have NEVER gotten away with that!
