Mother's Day Fun - Part 1

This year my Mother's Day was amazing!  It started out with a lovely two-hour retreat to Barnes & Noble.  After my relaxing morning I headed to my parents house to meet the rest of my crew for lunch. 

Very unexpectedly my fabulous husband and precious children surprised me with a beautiful, and incredibly meaningful, present.  I got a Pandora bracelet with three charms.

1. A witch from Lorelai because I "love witches and we go see 'Wicked' together."

2. From Miller I got a camera because "we both love to take pictures."

3. I got a cross from Dan because our faith is a common bond that keeps us close.

Anyone who knows me knows that I love my steak and burgers cooked extra, extra well done.  Mmmmmmmm!
