Mother’s Day was a nice day for me. Paul cooked ribs on his smoker and we had potato salad, beans and watermelon to round out the summer picnic dinner. The day before we had my favorite lemon meringue pie and on Sunday we had angel food cake and strawberries with whipped cream. Kaebri and Zade and G’ma were there also. We took G’ma to dinner on Saturday for her present. Also on Saturday night Moss and Christie brought over the family presents for me. It was fun stuff! A gift cert for a chocolate tasting tour and a dinner cert for a new BBQ place. On Sunday most of the kids wished me a happy Mother’s Day one way or another. It was all nice! I bought myself new shoes and got a pedicure as well (from Paul). Juge gave me a darling statue for Mother’s Day when we were up seeing Noah’s play a few weeks ago and later on, after it arrived in the mail, she gave me the most beautiful lily necklace with Lenae written in the leaves. It's so pretty. Love it all and most of all the peoples!
We barely made it home from Oregon in time for Father's Day! It was a nice day for Paul. He smoked the meat for his dinner. When we got home we found that our cherry tree was still filled with ripe cherries, so we picked them and we had just enough for me to make a wonderful cherry pie and also a batch of jam. That made him very happy! It's his favorite. He bought his own Father's Day present up at the Japanese Garden in Portland - a sweet little knife made of special steel that he also loves! The kids called him and loaded him up with nice gifts, so it turned out to be a very nice Father's Day for him I think!
