Mother's Day

What a day I had on Sunday. I can't tell you how fortunate I feel to have married such a sweet man. I guess he really pushed and pushed until he got me to visit him in AZ, so it really is all his doing! He gets the credit...for once.

I woke up at 8:40am! That is like sleeping WAAAAY in for me. All the boys were playing nicely and helping Greg with getting an amazing breakfast set up for me! Casa De Kastendike, the restaurant, was in full swing when I got downstairs. There was steaming hot French pressed Pumpkin Spice coffee waiting for me along with a gorgeous spread of fresh fruit and breads (with fresh croissants) and a tall glass of orange juice. I had a full menu to choose my breakfast from! He was prepared ya'll....with prep cups full of chopped veggies and everything!!! It looked unbelievable....too good to be true. Some of my choices for breakfast included, blueberry and/or chocolate chip pancakes, breakfast burrito, hot or cold cereals (all of which were listed, correctly, on the menu), French toast, omelet with choice of add-ins and all the a la carte items that I wanted!

I chose the breakfast burrito, hash browns and a short stack of pancakes! You know I like a little bit of everything! It was fabulous! I had a hot meal that I a. didn't have to make and b. didn't have to clean up. I finished eating and went directly upstairs to take a nice long hot shower and it was so relaxing knowing that someone else was taking care of it!

I had previously signed up to host coffee hour at church...not realizing that it was Mother's Day...duh! So I took my two GIANT boxes of cupcakes and hosted coffee hour with another mom, Kathryn, whose daughter was baptized the same day as Charlie...we were hosting in honor of the baptism.

Then I went to Wal-Mart and picked up some acetone, gasoline, a squirt bottle and a tomato plant. Dirty bomb anyone? I made it home and watered plants, snuggled with Samuel and had some very deserved quality time with my husband. He kick my ass at cornhole all afternoon. I have lost my mojo?!

Hope everyone had a fantastic Mother's Day! I know I did! And at the end of the day, you know what I thought to myself....."Wow, it must really be nice to be a man."
