Mother's Day Weekend

It was a fantastic weekend all around -- wonderful weather and loved being able to spend time together.

We spent part of the weekend planning our newest project around the house -- a backyard deck. Notice the deck in the background? We are planning something similar for our deck.


Not my favourite pic of myself -- but love that she willingly posed for a picture...she is so cute!
We worked up an appetite after our deck planning, so we headed to M & M's for a fundraising barbeque. Every year they fund raise for the Crohn's and Colitis foundation and as a Crohn's patient myself, we do what we can to support their efforts. Also, the barbeque is a lot of fun!

Maelyn really wanted a balloon doggy...


Happy girl!


I love this pic of my two loves!


A little unsure about the firetruck...


On Mother's Day, I woke up to flowers, treats, cards, and a yummy breakfast!


Mother's Day gift she made at her daycare -- love it!

Gourmet French toast -- my favourite!

Maelyn insisted that I take a picture of her breakfast, too....


I certainly felt loved and appreciated this weekend and was grateful to be celebrating Mother's Day with our little miss. My thoughts were also with Maelyn's first mom and I quietly thanked her for the most wonderful gift of all -- Maelyn.
