Playin’ in the Dirt

Mother’s Day has come aaaand gone {tear, tear}. I wish we had a Mother’s Day once a month {we deserve it right?! ;) }. It was a ridiculously fantastic day for me as for you I’m sure :) The weekend started with a Mother’s Spa Day with my momma!! On Sunday I woke up to breakfast in bed {actually, I woke up while hubs was making it and he told me to go back to bed so I wouldn’t ruin it. LOL}, a brand new camera and kisses from my little one {<- topped it off}! We enjoyed the rest of our day with our families; lunch with my family and dinner with his! It was perfect.

My momma has heard me gripe about needing/wanting to garden {our shabby little yard has def been in need of some TLC} so I was amped to see she gifted me with lots of flowers for Mother’s Day!

Image

My hubs jokingly ragged on me that by the time I would plant them they would be dead….the bet IS ON. By golly, the next day I had those puppies planted in the ground {hubs even helped out}. ;) Here’s the evidence….

{Pulling up those crazy stubborn weeds we had. Oh yeah, while pulling weeds a snake came right up to my hand! AHHHHH- I know I was in his space but I have to admit he scared me a bit.}

{We have flowers!!! We are going to buy more but I was so ecstatic for my first time gardening I thought I’d go ahead and share what we have accomplished so far.}

{My little gardening buddy! She LOVES nature –>a girl after my own heart!}

We plan on attempting to plant some veggies in the back yard as well! Any tips???? {ALL ears}

I want to hear all about what plans and gifts you were showered with for Mother’s Day!?!? :)

Make your own Mother’s Day card…

Hey everyone!! The weekend is here {finally}!

It’s almost Mother’s Day {only 1 day away}. I can’t wait to celebrate!! I enjoy some gooood holiday festivities but this one is also a knew kind of importance…MY FIRST MOTHER’S DAY {doesn’t get much better than that :) }.

I know many of us are last minute shoppers buuuuut we’re also crafty! So, I thought I would share some DIY Mother’s Day cards I found in hopes to save that last minute, “let’s run by Walmart on the way to see mom” phrase. A handmade personal card always goes a lot farther than a quick pick me up one. I know I will be making my own Mother’s Day cards for my Mother-in-law and Mother {which I don’t normally do} so wish me luck!

Check these cards out…
