My first Mother's Day!

Well... my first Mother's day came and went almost as fast as Gracie is growing. It was a great day all together. Mother's day actually started the night before. We went to Cracker Barrel for dinner, then went shopping for some Mother's day gift's. The next morning started pretty early. We got up, actually Gracie got us up, and we brought her in and fed her a bottle in bed with us, while we talked to her and just enjoyed laying there as a family. She is our little Cutie Pie(nickname given by my nephew Ian)!

So... after her bottle, I jumped in the shower to get ready for church. While I was waiting Doug got Gracie ready with my first gift of the day(yes... there was more than one). So, when he was ready, this is what I came out to...

Of course... I had to include a few pics of us together too...


After church, we went to lunch with both Doug's and my parents at our favorite Mexican restaurant El Rancho Grande. Here are a few pics outside the restaurant:

Later on... we came home and Cathy, Dave and the kids(minus Davie) all came over and hung out. We had a nice visit, then after they left, Doug gave me the rest of my mother's day gift. Doug gave me ...

A dogwood tree(no, it isn't this big yet, but it will be in a few years):

A Willow Tree Figurine...

And the book Marley and me...(looks just like our dog Honey!)
It was a great day... my very first Mother's Day! :)
