I had the best gift for Mother’s Day…time with my son! My husband took us to see a movie of my choice…The Grand Budapest Hotel. Not their cup of tea, but hey…it’s Mother’s Day and they always let me rule the day! Then we went to the mall shopping for my son’s girlfriend’s birthday gift from me and had a delicious meal at the Cheesecake Factory. I had the Shrimp Scampi with Steak Diane…sooo yummy! When my husband asked what I wanted for Mother’s Day, I said “To spend time with you and Justin”! All of our parents have passed away, so we have a small family now and I’m grateful for them.
Happy Mother’s Day!
A few days ago my girlfriend Gina took me out in the Country to “Johns Flowers” to shop for flowers for our decks. It’s located in Fayetteville. I was hesitant at first to drive that far out for flowers when I could go to a Lowe’s or Home Depot 10 minutes away, but I’m so happy I did! He has a huge selection and the quality is outstanding! John is so friendly and helpful and it’s nice to support local businesses!
