Happy Mother's Day

I hope everyone has a wonderful Mother's Day today. Thankfully we seem to have been blessed with some wonderful weather to enjoy (and it's about time!) It's supposed to be 18C here in Winnipeg today.

I woke up (at 10:00am) to a quiet house. I thought it was around 8:00am and was shocked when I rolled over and looked at the clock. After getting up and out of bed I realized Allan and the girls were downstairs playing Wii. It was so nice to sleep in, in a quiet house! (And amazing how well the loud noises stayed in the basement and didn't travel upstairs.)

Allan and the girls showered me with gifts, Madison made quite a few trinkets at school, Annika planted a flower and decorated a pot (the flower type yet to be discovered!) and Allan had bought a beautiful bouquet of yellow lilacs (my favourite) and Season 1 of Seventh Heaven (geeky I know, but I love that show!).

Right now the girls are at dance class with Allan and I'm enjoying some quiet time. After dance Madison is having a friend over to play and I plan to do some yard work. Tonight Allan is BBQ'ing some steaks and we'll have a nice dinner.

Hope your Mother's Day is as great as mine! And thank you Mom, for everything!
