a peek...

alright girlies....day one. done.
my bestie Amy....showed up and helped me ALL day. Thank you Ams!! I at first wondered why she volunteered to be here so early to help....
then i got it.
she wanted first dibs.



my yard is packed full of the best white lilacs in the world, so i packaged em up and sold quite a few all in my favorite little white pots....ready to grace the table for Mothers day....































that was just a sneaky peek. I still have one day left...tomorrow.
I hope you all have a fabulous Mothers Day.
We are having a bunch of family friends over for a backyard soiree.....
now, that's my idea of a Mothers Day treat!

this is the best mother's day of my life.
Mother's day was always a little sad for me because my mom had passed away, but this year I have my little son that came to brighten up my days!
Happy Mother's day!!!

Kasey
I can't believe I was unable to make it to your open house. I had been looking forward to it for so long....I am so very sorry I couldn't make it.
I hope it was successful and that you had a good time with everything.
Next time! I promise...hopefully I will not have any more allergic reactions now that we have it somewhat figured out :) Hopefully!
Take care
Janet
