Yesterday was Mother's Day. I had almost 30 people at the house for dinner and treats. To say my house was full was an understatement. A good time was had by all. Babies, mothers, dads ... smiles and giggles and laughter. We had SO much food I honestly thought I was going to puke at the end of the night. Now THAT'S when you know you had a great night.


I got my mom and myself necklaces from the Vintage Pearl. Absolutely love them. Mine has my kid's names on it and I put all of my siblings names on my mom's.


The only one missing tonight was Jessica (missed you sister!). My brother came with a shaved head. He had a mohawk the week before. Never quite know about that boy and how his hair will be or how he will be dressed.


Happy Mother's Day 2010 for all of you awesome rock stars that do it every day!!
