This is the best Mother’s Day present I could ever receive.

My youngest DD brought roses to me today, for a belated Mother’s Day. She actually ordered them on Friday and paid with money that she won from the JAC National Contest this month. She just didn’t want me to get them early. DH took us all to Playa Azul in Pratt on Saturday afternoon on our way to visit MIL. We love Playa Azul, but prefer to eat at the one in Woodward because they always bring the queso to the table (for free) with the chips and the interior is a bit nicer. With fuel prices the way they are, Pratt was the better choice, as it was on our way.

I had mentioned that I ended my Mother’s Day by sitting by the fire until after dark, but I should have said that it ended with a very pleasant phone call from my oldest DD, who lives in the Dallas Area. She actually spent an hour visiting with me.

For me, Mother’s Day began and ended in superb fashion. The day began with a cup of coffee in front of the fire in our backyard and ended in the same manner, with the exception of iced tea for coffee. It was lovely. In addition, we could not have asked for better weather.

I almost feel guilty for being so blessed with such a spectacular day!

I have several photos and a video clip to share, but I think I want to break them down in seperate entries, because they each deserve their “own space”.
