Mother's Day Weekend

Even though Mother's Day is only one day, because it says day in the title like Andy reminded me, I like to think of it as a whole weekend. I really did have a nice weekend with my family.

On Saturday morning we went for a family bike ride.


One of our friends has a vine in their backyard filled with caterpillars and asked if we wanted any to put in a container for Max to watch it turn into a butterfly. Since there isn't a whole lot of exciting stuff going on in life right now I thought why not. So, I bought a critter container and Max and I headed over there to collect some caterpillars. They filled our container with 12 caterpillars. That was too many because we had two chrysalis a few days later and now we only have one because the other caterpillars ate one of the chrysalis. Super gross! I am glad that Max found this funny, but I found it disturbing. We currently have one chrysalis growing and 10 caterpillars crawling around. Max loves this critter home and checks on it constantly giving updates on how the caterpillars are doing.


Saturday night we got together with our friends and played Cards Against Humanity via Zoom. This was way more fun than I thought and the best thing about getting together with your friends virtually is going to bed as soon as the night ends without having to get yourself home. The night was filled with a lot of laughter that was much needed. I don't know why we didn't do this six weeks ago. Also, disregard my unfinished wall that Andy has been working on for weeks now. It will get done...someday.


Sunday morning I woke to breakfast in bed with Max. He made us our favorite, avocado and salmon toast with fruit and scrambled eggs. We ate it in bed together while we watched a movie.


Mother's Day was seriously the best laziest day I have had in a long time. I mean, I never got out of my pajamas. I couldn't have asked for a better day. Max and I even took a nap together and we wanted a peaceful nap so we locked Zoe out. She wasn't very happy about it so Andy took a picture of her waiting.


They spoiled me with presents and a nice mother's day dinner from a local restaurant that Andy had delivered.


I sure am one lucky lady to be spoiled all day by Max and Andy! Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there.
