HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!

Olivia and I went to my mother's yesterday to spend Mother's Day with her. We got there around 11:00 and then we were off to the mall. We went to eat at Jason's Deli where we ran into two people we knew from Emmaus and one of my sixth grade teachers, Mrs. Coburn from Central Jr High. Mrs. Coburn was my favorite teacher of all times. Mom, Olivia and I shopped for a little while and it is truly amazing because my mom bought me clothes and not Olivia. Trust me that doesn't happen very often. Once we were finished shopping we went to see my Grandma. She was in a great mood and everytime she sees Olivia it is for the first time. She always says, "I didn't know Brooke had a daughter." Olivia will sit with her and grandma likes to love on her.
We got home and Olivia started waiting for Poppy. Every so often she would look at the door and say, "Poppy." She loves Poppy because he takes her outside. He finally arrived and she was ready to get her shoes on and go outside. Once I lathered her with sunscreen (it was very hot and sunny) they went outside to look for the rabbits and deer. Mom and I decided to go to the grocery store and get some wine and cheese. We were probably gone for about 30 minutes and during the time we were gone Poppy and Olivia did a little yard work. By the time we got home Olivia had red cheeks and was sweating. We got into the house and the first thing she did was go for her water. She was pooped but had a great time.
This morning we went to church with Mo. Olivia sat in church with us and was pretty good during the songs but once the sermon started she got a little antsy so we had to go out for a little while. It was nice because after the service some of the men had cooked breakfast for the mothers.
We headed back to Houston after the service and waited for Daddy to get home. Once Daddy got home Olivia gave me a beautiful mother + daughter necklace. It has twin pendants and the top is mother of pearl with Chinese characters for mother and daughter and then underneath is the English translation. It is exactly what I wanted.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY MEMAW !!!!!
