Happy Mother's Day!

We had a fantastic Mom's Day weekend.  The family got together every day for more eating!  Phil's parents are in town so we always get together with them several times.  We started out on Friday night having a feast that Avo (Phil's mom) made including fresh bread.  Saturday night we had a BBQ at mom & dad's house and Sunday (Mother's Day) the guys made and served us brunch.  Nathan got up before 6am to start making the cinnamon rolls, Dad created fresh made-to-order omelettes, Phil cooked and organized- keeping everything running smoothly and Bob (Nate's dad) & Avu (phil's dad) were on the clean-up crew. Even Grandpa was in there cutting up stuff.  It was a feast and I was full all day.
After brunch Nathan started working on my mother's day gift- a garden.  I'm thrilled and can't wait to get it started.  I've also started my own compost pile.  I'm working on my green thumbs... slow but sure.
Pictures are in no order- just the weekend!
