Happy Mother's Day!

Here is the new fence around my tomato patch that my older daughter helped me put up on Mother's Day....

aw, how cute. Hey that's right, you live in the land of available slate!
Nice little garden spot too.

I do love that little slate walk!

I read the paper and watched CBS Sunday Morning, and hubby made me tea and oatmeal, my fav. Then we went to an Arkansas Razorbacks baseball game (we won!), and then watched the amateur's in the Joe Martin Stage Race (criterium part) after that. I ate a lot, too, anything I wanted.

My mid-son called me, but my oldest did not. He's at Ft. Leonard Wood, so I might see him today on his way back (his car is here). I spoke to my mother on the phone, too, and she was surprisingly pleasant and noncritical.

Mother's Day was very hectic at our house. I woke up early and made myself a big cuppa coffee and baked steel cut oats with blueberries and maple syrup--a special treat. DH and dd got up shortly after that. DH tried to get our 2yo dd to say "Happy Mother's Day," instead she went around singing "Happy mommy! Happy mommy!"--which made me happy

For some reason, I got the urge to have some birdhouses in our backyard, so that's what we did. We went to Lowe's to buy some cedar and paint and spent the weekend building bird houses. We made a slew of them and gave them as gifts to our moms, grandmothers, and great grandmother as well.

It was a nice weekend. I can't complain.
