The Saturday before Mother's Day Kb and I host a Mother's Day dinner party. (We also host one for Father's day) We invite my parents, his parents, my brother and his family, his sister, his best friend and his family. Barnes lives out of town but his parents are here and Kb and Barnes grew up together so it's fitting that we involve them too. This year we decided to do a shrimp and crab leg boil in the afternoon and it was wonderful!
I even made Sangria for our mommas. Hear me, Sangria is my go-to summer drink so the sacrifice I made by making this without partaking should be gift enough.
The weather was beautiful. After filling our guts on shrimp, crab legs and all the trimmings we sat outside and had homemade ice cream and devils food chocolate cake. Calories on Mother's Day are like the ones on your birthday... They don't count.
My mom and mom-in-law both gave me sweet cards for my 1st Mother's Day. I thought Aww, I'm going to put these in baby boy's baby book. Then Kb came through with his card.
Classic, I love it ,but I'm not looking forward to the day when I have to explain what knocked up means.
Happy Mother's Day Everyone!
What a FUN idea! Love it! And can I tell you how much I long for the day that I can drink a nice, tall glass of sangria wine?!?! Think it's appropriate to request alcohol immediately after delivering?!
ReplyDeleteAnd that card?! OMG...your husband is TOO clever!
Happy Mother's Day, mama-to-be :)
