A couple of weeks ago for Teacher Appreciation week we took gifts to the girls' teachers. Brynn gave her teacher a Harry Potter water bottle as she is a fellow Potter Head. I didn't get a picture of her with it, though. Clara did a candy bouquet again which works out nicely because she has several different teachers.
She was just ecstatic to give it to her teachers.
Last week I was treated to two Muffins with Moms with the first at Brynn's school and with what was the last for Brynn since I suppose they don't do it in middle school. Bummer!
A couple days later I had round two at Clara's school. She wanted us to be matching that day too. :-)
She made lots of sweet crafts for me.
She really put me on blast knowing my real age. ;-) They must have done this right before my birthday. There, I just outed myself now. Ha.
On Saturday we went to Grandpa and Grandma Dietz's lake place to "help" with their garage sale. I feel like I didn't really do anything but hang out, so I had a good time. Brynn was checking out some of Grandpa's sale wares.
We had baked cookies on Friday night and Brynn made banana bread to sell. She did pretty well!
Since it was my dad's birthday on Saturday and Mother's Day the next day, we went out for dinner in Hawley and Brynn got to ride in Grandm'a Vette.
Brynn stayed the night at Grandpa and Grandma's and the rest of us drove back home.
We attended a very nice Mother's Day service at church and then came back home and the fam made me brunch.
Yum! It was all so good.
After we got some things cleaned up at home, we headed to Dead Lake to see Dana's mom for Mother's Day. It was a nice day for the most part, but with a breeze and the sun coming and going, we couldn't decide if we were warm or cold.
No bother for Clara, though. She got her feet wet and accidentally her behind too. Brrr!
We were able to spend some time with Grandpa Don and Granny Annie, too, as they drove up for the afternoon as well.
We ran out of time for me to open my gifts on Sunday, so we did it this week. I got a nice neck pillow for when I am snoozing while traveling and a pair of sandals that I wanted. I love the cat card, of course!
It was a wonderful entire weekend. We are so grateful for the mothers in our lives. And to my mom for preparing me for my own motherhood journey by starting me out reading up on the subject at a young age. ;-)
