As is tradition in my home, I was served a Mother's Day breakfast, by Jason and the kids. Because we have 9:00am church, I hopped in the shower and missed my chance to have breakfast in bed.
Still yummy at the table , also less risk of crumbs in the sheets or spilled milk. :)
Jason gave me clothing and treats. Clothing for my new size and treats to keep me at my old size. Just kidding, I will only eat them on my FREE day. The kids each gave me cute handmade gifts they had done at school or secretly constructed behind closed doors. So sweet.
Our young men got it "right". They served all mothers/women Symphony CHOCOLATE bars, after sacrament meeting. After church, I promptly opened and consumed 1/2 of mine, before getting home. Just the beginning of my chocolate buzz for the day.
In the evening, we went over to my mom's house to celebrate with her, along with Dean/Candice, Tim/Karen and Brinton/Amber's families.
It was a CrAZy busy house, but fun.
"If mother's were flowers...I'd pick you!"
A kid's rubber boot, with cute little purple pansies.
I also made this cute, miniature Happy Mother's Day banner, to put on a triple-layer chocolate cake.
Gifts for my mom.
Emma, this is for you... a cake banner 'stache. :) 
To go with our very rich chocolaty cake, and to complete my chocolate buzz, "Death by Chocolate" ice cream, of course.Death by Chocolate? Yes please... there are probably worse ways to go. :)
Happy Mother's Day, Mom!
I love you!

What a sweet conclusion to a beautiful and full day it was. I love my flowers (still alive, yea!) the chocolate and poppyseed cakes you and Karen shared were DEE-licious.
Loud gathering? Yes
Fun and satisfying? Double Yes.
Thank you for your thoughtfulness. I love you armloads and heartfuls.
Oh that is too funny! Chocolate cake and mustaches should go together more often.
