It's time once again for Ten Things Tuesday! This list has a lot to do with Mother's Day! Click on the cloud picture above to go to my friend, Mrs. Brownstone's site for all of the details on how you can join in on all of the Ten Things fun!
- Mother's Day was great! We went to church, took my mom out for lunch, I got to take a nap & then we met my sister and her family at my mom's house to give her her presents. We each got her a white wooden rocking chair for her front porch! She loved them! We then made a nice dinner & all picked a bazillion weeds in her front yard for her!
- Both of my girls woke up, made their beds, brushed their teeth, fed the pets & got ready for school without me asking them to do one thing! WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!
- I had a terrific Mother's Day! Presley woke me up bright & early to give me her present she made me. It was this:
- Payton gave me her Mother's Day present. It was a beautiful card with flowers that you pick & on the back is a kind thing that she will do for me. I get to pick one each day!!! The inside had a sweet poem. I also got a Woman of the Year Award from her. I got really teary eyed reading it!
- Brandon surprised me at the gym today! He came up behind me & scared me! It was a nice treat to get to see him in the middle of the day!
- Presley had a great party day at school today! She came home with lots & lots of fun things. Her two favorite were the pool floatie & the beach ball. She hasn't let go of either of them all evening! She's too cute... I just had to take her picture!
- My house is clean & all of my laundry is done!
- Payton came home from school today with this award!!!! Way to go Payton! She won this award in 1st Grade & now again in 3rd Grade! I'm really proud of you Payton!
- I finally got my rear in gear & went to go get my tag renewed. It expired in April & I have been really nervous each time I see a friendly police officer!!! I won't have to break a sweat & say a prayer each time I see a cop from now on! I can just smile!
- Last, but certainly not least... My hilarious hubby... He made a mad dash on Sunday afternoon to get me a Mother's Day card. I guess he was feeling guilty or something??? Anyway, as I was reading the card I started cracking up & laughing out loud. It was my ugly laugh, my laugh when something is REALLY funny. Brandon kept looking at me like "What are you laughing at? I didn't write anything funny." I read all of the sweetness & got to the bottom & it said HAPPY BIRTHDAY at the bottom! I know he just grabbed a card that looked pretty & didn't even read one word of it! After I showed it to him, he turned bright red & grabbed a marker & marked out Birthday and wrote Mother's Day! Men??? Hmm..... I guess it's the thought that counts!!!

That birthday--woops, I mean Mother's Day--card was hilarious! I need to get my tag renewed, too. I hate being nervous every time I go somewhere! Great list!
I love the card! That is too funny, and totally something my husband would do.
When I was still in college, my hubby woul dtake Blake to get me a card every once in a while, no matter what Blake picked out that is what was sent....I got many a Sorry for you Bereavement, and Happy Birthday, You're 5!" cards those years I was away!!!
LOVE the card! And how fantastic does your hair look in those graduation photos?!?! :-)
Okay, I love it that some of my friends from college are now some of your loyal blog readers/friends!! I think it is sooooo cool!
I'm going to have to remember to tell Brandon just how much I love his card Friday night at their games!! :) I'm glad that you had a great day!!
Hi Jill-
Your blog looks great...you figured out that "personalizing your own subtitle thing." I've always wanted to learn that...you'll have to share sometime...And, if it's too hard than I'll just have to pay my blogger friend to do it!
