Mother's Day 2011 was quiet but very nice. John and Marge were gone in Champaign visiting Meagan and Jeff was in Portland visiting our friend Tim so Grace and the boys went to her mother's I am sure. Amanda is still in Boston with JM.
When I talked to Amanda, actually texted, I had offered to buy flowers for Mama to be a gift from Amanda. As of Saturday night I had not done so.
On Mother's Day I got up at 6:45 AM! I dressed quietly and went to the Jewel. I not only wanted to get flowers as a gift from Amanda, I also wanted to buy more flowers and a card that would be a gift from Debbie to Mom, as I had failed to get together with Debbie and shop with her.
For lunch I made chalupas using a recipe I had seen in Parade Magazine. The recipe was submitted by Eva Longoria! Before lunch I served the ladies Bloody Marys.
When I served lunch Baker came down and sat with us but he didn't eat. Sarah, Mom and Debbie all raved about the bloody marys and also the Chalupas. I think that they really did like both.
Afterwards we sat outside in the sun. It was just warm enough to do so. Mom and Debbie at about 3 PM.
I love those three ladies. I would call the day a success.
