Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day was amazing this year! I celebrate both Mexican Mother’s Day (May 10 every year) and normal Mother’s Day here in the US.

I was very spoiled by my family and friends this year and just left extremely happy

Here are some of the gifts I got….

First the ones I bought for myself LOLOLOL. Sephora had their twice a year 20% off sale in April so I bought a lot of stuff I have been wanting and some restocks

I have tried almost everything I have bought and loved it all so far

I still need to try this Milk Primer but I am almost out of my normal primer and hope it lives up to the hype

My son, Logan, picked this beautiful New York Yankees sweater for me and I absolutely love it! I love love love the Yankees since I was a little girl and the Yankees and Chicago White Sox have my heart in sports forever. Baseball in general is my very favorite sport so any gift baseball related I will always love

I am still in shock Dan got me these cute heels. I don’t normally wear heels because I have this unexplained fear that I need to wear shoes I can run in but for special date nights I will definitely wear them out. I already wore them once and Dan complimented me the whole night. They are surprisingly comfortable and I like them a lot too

My friend and Dan got me some makeup from a favorite brand, Dior

Love this lip tint my friend sent me. It is so pretty and has become a favorite to wear

Dan’s goodies he got me

I am obsessed with Dior’s lip balm and so happy he got me this cute set and on top of that he also got me this cute light pink case to use with all my lip balms

My beautiful flowers my boys bought for me

Logan’s class made these cute plants for all the moms

My mother in law got me my favorite chocolates and a gift card

My friends sent me the cutest gifts and I can’t wait to use them all! I especially am excited for the AOU lip balm and Doraemon piggy bank, so stinking cute

My oldest, Dylan got me my favorite summer flats and this cute light up mirror

Loved the kids cards this year! I especially loved the poem my oldest wrote to me and their cards perfectly summarize them

My oldest-wrote a beautiful poem because he knows my deep love for poetry and drew me a beautiful picture

My middle-always straight to the point like me and made me the perfect circle smiley face

My youngest-his class card was just so cute and love the cute clip picture holder of him

Logan (my middle) always is so thoughtful with his gifts and every year gets me a pair of pajamas and I am shocked he found the Baltimore Orioles hat I have been wanting for years (I know Dan helped him but it is still thoughtful) I love the show Seinfeld and was watching the episode where Elaine gets kicked out from the Yankees game because she is wearing this exact Orioles style hat while sitting in the Yankees owner area and I briefly said it in passing that I really wanted that hat for a long time but have been lazy to actually look for it (the Orioles changed their logo a couple of years ago) but low and behold they found it for me! Love my new hat and while I am not a big Orioles fan I do find myself cheering for them when I see them playing now

In college I was obsessed with the brand Gola for shoes. I wore them religiously but with time and just having different tastes I lean more towards Vans and Supergas now but I was telling Dan about how much I loved them when I found some old school pictures and he must have seen the nostalgia in my face because he got me a new pair!!! I love these because while pink is my favorite color, I have tons of pink and gold shoes but no other plain colors so these navy shoes are perfect to add to my shoe collection! I can’t wait to break them in and hopefully take them to Europe with me this summer

One of my friends sent me this and I just screamed of cuteness! love my new headbands for when I do my face masks and makeup of Tata and Shooky and on top of that a new hand fan in a pretty color, lavender. So cute and obsessed!

One of my best friends recently bought this for herself and sent me one and it has been so handy. It is another handheld fan but this fan clip to your shorts or pants and blows air up to cool off your back or front underneath your shirt!!! So smart and handy and can’t wait to use during the hot days coming up. If you can’t tell I love little gadgets and my close friends all know these are my favorite type of gifts.

On Mexican Mother’s Day, which was on a Friday, Dan took me and Scott out to my favorite crepe place in St Paul.

We then went on a walk (my very favorite thing to do always)

Waking up on Mother’s Day slightly hungover from Saturday Night but with a yummy coffee ready from Dan

A late Mother’s Day brunch on Sunday

We got my favorite pizza and wings that night and it was the end of a perfect Mother’s Day weekend. It was definitely a fun weekend and now gearing up to think of cute things and gifts to get Dan for Father’s Day
