Mother’s Day Weekend

What an amazing weekend it was! On Friday I had a park playdate with my MOMS Club members with Scott and since my oldest gets home around 1pm I was able to take him to Cafe Latte while Dan watched the baby nap and after lunch we went on a nice walk around Summit Ave and then picked up my middle from Preschool.

On Saturday, Dan took me to a new restaurant we haven’t been to before called Pier Five Hundred and it was a lot of fun going somewhere new to us and then walking the Pier.

I just realized how boring we are because we always get a burger but I LOVE burgers
Walking the Pier was so nice, just talking and watching the boats go by, I was only missing a cup of coffee and it would have been heaven lol

On Sunday, Dan booked an amazing breakfast at Holman’s Table. I had been once before and mentioned how it was a pretty neat place right on an airfield and the food was good and Dan surprised me by going there and enjoying a really good breakfast and time together with the kids. I think this is the first time since the pandemic hit that the 5 of us have been out to eat together. We typically take one or two of the kids or we each take one of them out but not out as a family of 5 just us. It went way better than expected and we only had to leave early because it was Scott’s nap time so we asked for the dessert to go.

I love this time of year for all the beautiful colors and trees. There was this beautiful set of deep purple and pink color trees I had to take a picture of them.

This one is in front of our house, our crab apple tree. I love how it feeds all the birds, squirrels, and bunnies and it provides great entertainment for the kids to sit and watch.
My sweet cards from Dan and the kids
The kids picked out beautiful flowers
Sometimes I forget how well my boys know me. I love my newest earrings and they are so colorful, fun, and so ME!! I can’t wait to wear these around town
Funny, I had taken my oldest to the mall to show me some gym shoes he might want for his birthday and in passing I mentioned I wanted a new pink pair of shoes. I had bought Dan some slip on blue Vans just like these for Father’s Day that day and I love that he told Dan to get me matching ones because I LOVE matching!! I can’t wait for Dan to get his pair soon and we can go about matching everywhere ā¤
I had also mentioned I wanted a new lipstick and love Laura Mercier and I only have 2 colors from this brand and LOVE IT! . Dan picked out this pretty “Fresh” color and even redeemed points for another favorite brand of mine, Charlotte Tilbury. Who is this guy and how did I get so lucky? I am happy I gave him my Sephora information many years ago so he can always log in and see what I have “loved” recently to buy it for me.
These are both a matte formula and go on so pretty and smoothly!
We know I love my Nespresso, but I can’t believe Dan got me this cup after I complained it was sold out online! Ahhh can’t wait to try my iced coffee in this!

I was very spoiled this weekend thanks to my family. They are so thoughtful and I feel very happy and blessed. Words cannot express how amazing this weekend was and today is Mexican Mother’s Day so more celebrating! Scott has his allergy test this morning so we will be busy trying to finally figure out what he is allergic to but it will take FOUR hours!! I don’t know how I am going to entertain him for so long but hopefully it isn’t as bad as I imagine it will be (eek!)
