My Mothers Day

My Mothers Day celebration started yesterday with a lunch of fish and chips brought to our place by my eldest son, Scott.  He had his eldest son down for the weekend and so I was able to see both his boys together which made my day. Tom and Jake gave me a special card along with these beautiful flowers. Thank you so much my darling boys.
Also from Scott  and my second son Todd and his family, I received this gorgeous bracelet.
It has a cow (I collect cow stuff),a teddy bear, my favourite colour blue, initial N, sparkly bauble, my birth sign and another small bear (I collect bears too).  I have wanted one of these for a while, so thank you my lovely family for getting me one.
I also got to spend this morning with Todd, my lovely DIL, Deb and GS, Josh at the Tamborine Markets.  We had breakfast and then spent the rest of the morning looking at the stalls. I ended up picking up a few things along the way.
Chris and I looking at jewellery.

My hubby bought me the two pendants at the top and the fob watch in the box at the front. I bought some funky owl rings for $5 each, some goats soap plus the gorgeous scarf below.


Just as we were about to leave, the rain decided to come down so the boys pulled on their hoodies and we girls just had to brave the wet. Missing is my GD, Kiah, who had to work today.
We headed home for lunch  with my daughter and her fur baby Rusty. Hot roast chicken sandwiches followed by pikelets and jam.  Kym brought me some scratchy tickets.  Thought I was on a winner with this one as the extra prize word was our surname YOUNG, which we had a bit of a laugh about, but unfortunately the O did not come up. Oh well not a winner of money today but a big winner in the family stakes and that's all that matters.
Below is a family photo of us all taken last year. Since this photo I have lost 13 kg so another reason to be happy.
I love you all very much, thank you for spending time with me, and to the boys for being so patient while Deb and I shopped and for making my Mothers Day weekend so very special. Well a rather long post so hope you made it to the end.
To all the other Mum's out in blog land, I hope you too had a wonderful day.  See you soon.   Hugs.........
