Mothers Day Tea

Mother's Day Tea at Brielle's school...what a special day.  My first mothers day school tea! It came way to fast.  Wasn't she just 2? I love all these first with the one who made me a mommy but she's getting be way to fast.
 
We had a beautiful rain on the way to school that morning.
 
She was awfully excited to have me there.
 
 
 
 
Those cookies were so good!
 
 
The kids made their mommas some presents....
 
 
Inside the little purse was this....
She was so sweet and right on about everything, then I go to the last question.......
Big Circle head huh.  I know several people who will get a kick outta that one.

They sang us two mothers day songs that they had practice so hard on.  It was a special little morning and I was glad my mom had off so she could keep Hason so B and I could have our time together.

 And here's this idiot who couldn't stop laughing after reading the "big circle head" comment. Boy did he think Brielle was clever.
 
We've argued our whole relationship over who has the larger head...I still think he does so I don't know what's so funny....
 
On a side note, B just loves getting mail and her Gannpa and Gigi are so good about sending goodies to the kids here and there.  Teresa actually subscribed her to this company that sends out scientific crafts for kids each month, kinda like birch box. She was thrilled at her little gift.
 

Let the Children Come

 
Brielle's school has chapel every morning and on this particular day they had a skit, 3 of the kids had parts and my honey bear was one of them.  She was the mother, bringing her children to see Jesus.  She's quite expressive and not shy to be on stage so I think acting may be a good career for her.  Her job was to jump up and say "Come on children, come on!" yeah, she's big time now :)
 
 
 
Then we got to watch them sing their precious songs.


 
 
Such a beauty, she makes me so proud.  She has such a big caring heart.  She will bless many people with her giving ways.
Here's her cute little 3/4 year old class
 

 
Since it's almost summer round here we busted out the water table.  Brielle could have cared less about it last summer so it's been put up for a while.  She loved it when she was two, 3 not so much. 
 
 
 
Little Handsome sure enjoyed it though!

Mommy's First Putt Putt

The joys of having a little girl....dress up and nail painting.
 
Such beautiful flawless perfectly made little hands.
 
My little baseball player (someday)
 

 A couple of Fridays ago I finally got to meet up with my wonderful doula/friend Lindsay!  She suggested meeting at Central Market.  I found that a bit odd, um a grocery store, really.  The beauty of living in a big city is all the cool stuff there is to do and all the hidden gems to find...Apparently they have a restaurant inside.
 
And a patio area......
 
And a playground! How cool is that, I LOVE Dallas!  We just got a market street and they have a wine bar inside and a playground as well! What a perfect combo haha!
 
 
Miss B keeps telling us she wants a Mustang Convertible....she shares her parents love of sports cars but little does she know she's getting a Hummer! Or a tank!
 
Mall and cookie time.  She is absolutely precious, she got this tiny cookie but insisted on sharing a piece with me and her dad.  She has a big heart!
 
 
Momma got a new swimsuit!
 
That evening we took my mom out to play putt putt.  Ok so first she hadn't ever bowled in her life and we took her to do that last year, second she's never played putt putt! Woman where have you been!  She started out rocky but did really good towards the end.  She feels unsure about trying these new things but always ends up doing really well. I was proud of her!
 
 
 
They measured B inside and said she was tall enough to ride with dad on the big go carts.  She was so excited.  Then we got outside and they measured her again and said she was too short.  Landon said "no they measured her inside and used a different height stick and said she was fine" The guys then proceeded to tell Landon that all the sticks were the same and that Landon must have mistaken the stick "touching her bow/hair" as being tall enough.  Um you don't try to tell my very intelligent husband that he was wrong about something like that.  Landon was pissed,  kinda made me happy it wasn't me for once haha. I was cool, calm and collected.  Landon was right though, they need to get their S!@# together and communicate with their employees better, you can't do that to a kid.  You should have seen the meltdown...not Landon..Brielle ha.

 
So luckily my honey bear was tall enough to do the kid carts by herself.  She looked so tiny! We lined up and when it was our turn the guy said we didn't have any credits on our card (we had just paid!) Landon turned and started walking towards the office to have them fix the problem then WHIRLED back around and came back full force (you know somethings up when that man moves quickly, he moves slow as hell even when we are in a hurry)  he tells the poor kid in a loud Lord type voice "I'm not going all the way back in there, this was y'alls mistake, she's gonna ride the carts!"  They let her right in.  I write all of this cause normally it's me...but this time Landon was the one who threw the fit.  I found it rather humorous and sexy ha!
 
So B had a great time until her cart stopped working and the guy had to start it up again, then she wasn't first anymore.  She got off crying cause she didn't win.  She is her daughters child. sigh.  This makes it sound like we had an awful night, but we didn't. it was really fun :)

Our Weekend

It is garage sale season people!!! On this particular day I scored a new $300 pair of black leather Ralph Lauren riding boots, a outside door mat, a practically new rain coat, and a couple toys for Brielle all for $20! 
 
My Aunt loves garage sales even more than me so she's the best person to tag a long with!  But let me set one thing straight...we aren't type of garage sale people who buy junk just for the sake of buying junk...we aren't afraid to come home empty handed.  We are on the search for legit things :)
 
My sweet little fisherman enjoying the playground.  I just love his outfit, it's rabbit moon and they have the most unique things.





 
 
My beauty can do everything herself.  She doesn't need mom anymore :(




 
 
Dinner after church....

 
I swear all this kid does it eat!
 
He goes nuts over bananas!
