I hope all you wonderful mothers had a fantastic Mothers Day, I got to Celebrate 2 days in a Row.. Well 4 if you count Thursday & Friday too. See Thursday evening we took Steven & Cinda out for dinner and did some walking at the Simi Towne Center and went to the armed forces history museum, then Jesse was like "hey lets pull an all nighter" (thats about 11:30 pm our time haha) So we did just that and headed over to my favorite all time store Winco (grocery store), did some serious damage there and went to bed way past our all nighter time. Then Friday my hubby took the day off and we hung out all day, took Annabel to School then went window shopping, I tried on sooo many outfits and left with nothing (that drives Jesse crazy) but I'm the kind of shopper that has to "Feel" it to actually buy it, Crazy, Yup, I know. After a couple more stores we decided to try something new for lunch, Famous Dave's BBQ, I'm not a big fan of BBQ Sauce but this place was a super WINNER in my book. We then went and picked up our granddaughter, and her & I went Shopping (i know again?) with my Mommy.. :) while Jess stood home and studied for his sermon. She wanted to Bless Cinda with new clothes for our Annual Church Conference in Tuscon. After a crazy day of shopping we finally came home and another wonderful surprise was my baby boy (not so baby, 20 year old US Marine, hee hee) showed up for the weekend festivities, I wasn't expecting him to come at all.
Saturday Morning we all got up and got ready to head south to see Jesse's family, see May 10th is Mexico's Mothers Day. We had a huge BBQ and his sisters home ( a place we love getting together at). Wonderful food and the kicker is they asked Jesse to pray over the food before we started. I think its awesome that they embrace prayer (especially since some of them think we are "extreme" with "our church") I was just glad my mother in law got to have all her childeren, grand children and great grandchildren there to help her Celebrate.
Sunday Morning followed with more celebrating, I was in my room getting ready for church when my two girls came in with my gift. They sang me a song.. I was trying so hard to stay strong and not cry but by the time Cinda sang her solo.. I was choking down the tears. It was the best gift ever!!!! I was blessed again with my Hubby getting to preach at church (our pastor and his family were on vacation). He did amazing!!! He always does!!! I am so proud to call him my Husband. We had a few visitors, two main guests were my mom's sisters!! She was so excited. See she just got a new Tablet and posted on FB to let all her family and friends know her Son in law was preaching.. She is so cute!! I love her so much, especially into the wonderful woman of God she is becoming. Just the encouragement she gives me (she might not know it, but she does)!
After service my husband blessed my mom, me and Cinda with lunch at the best Chinese Restaurant in Oxnard, Yup, I know. .... Golden Chicken Inn.
Finally to end the spectacular weekend, my husband got me a purse, Yup, I know.. I have to many purses.. don't worry it wasn't another Dooney or Coach... hee hee but it was cute!!!!
I hope all you mothers out there were as blessed as I was this past weekend! We all deserve a pat on the back because being a mom is one of the most emotional, tear jerking, rewarding job in the world, and the worst part is our children are only borrowed for this time on earth!!! But so worth it!!! Have a great day!!
Proverbs 23:25
Let your father and your mother be glad, And let her who bore you rejoice.
