Mother's Day post #1

I win the award for blog slacker, but we've had the busiest weekend. As usual, Sage's dance recital was on Mother's Day weekend, and I have a LOT of pictures to sort through from that. So I thought I'd post a little about Mother's Day. This is the first year that my mom has been here for Mother's Day...like ever, I think. She came for Sage's recital and a certain someone's impending birthday, so we just lucked out that she'd be here on Mother's Day, too. I've known what I wanted to get her for a while. I went and made my purchase on Saturday (recital day) and decided to go ahead and give it to her, since Sunday is a whirlwind with church.

I came back with it wrapped, and she knew that couldn't have been done by me. Very true. I'm a gift bag kind of girl.
Sage, as usual, was trying to help. Jaggar was helping daddy.
I HATE that this picture is blurry, but I couldn't NOT post it. I got her a Pandora bracelet and bead to start her off. It was the perfect idea because she was obviously thrilled.
And 3 days later, she has gone back to Couch's and filled a good chunk of it up. She said that she hasn't had that much fun in a long time. They ARE fun, and if you don't have a pandora bracelet, you should get one. OR buy one for someone you love. They'll be glad you did. Okay, I'm done pushing. The purple bead in the center with the hearts is the original one that I got.
And even though she's MY mom, she bought me things, too, but that's just because she's giving all the time. I saw these watches at Belk the other day and loved them. Toy Watches. Never heard of them because they're relatively new (I later found out), but I LOVED them, particularly the pink one. Apparently, in the movie, "The Blind Side," Sandra Bullock wore one and their popularity rose immensely. I've never even seen that movie, but I just LOVED the watch. She got me this and a new coach purse. Thank you, Mom! And I will continue working on updating this blog with recital pictures and more Mother's Day pictures.
