I hope everyone had a nice Mother's Day yesterday. 3 of my boys came over and spent the day with Jack and I and we had some good laughs and good food! I was very thankful for the thoughtful gifts and cards from them, and we had a nice phone call from our son in Oregon. He sent me a gift card to one of the restaurants in town that Jack and I both enjoy. The weather was so beautiful and we were able to spend most of the day outside on the deck. Today I took off early and headed to Chicago to be with my sister to help with planning of our family reunion we're having this summer. We took some time to go her Granddaughter's horseback riding lesson. Ella loves horses and this is truly a passion for her and I was happy to see her doing so well and loving those horses! I'm sure I'll have more to blog about after this trip as we're also planning a girls trip to Maine in July. Here's just a few pics of the last few days:

Happy Belated Mother's Day to you! It sounds like a great way to celebrate. I'm so glad most of the boys made it over for a visit. That fuchsia looks amazing! So healthy and full. I always used to get 1 fuchsia for my front porch (about the only place I had shade) and could always count on finding huge ones. Either I'm missing them somehow (well, I don't go to so many greenhouses as I used to) or we just aren't getting the big ones in our area any more. Yay on wintering over the fern! I tried that one year and they made such a huge mess I said never again. Ella looks like she has great form - she's so fortunate to be able to take lessons. Good luck (and have fun!) with your planning.
Glad you had a good Mother's day. Loved the entry especially the horse shots. Hope to get back into this again. Enjoyed the visit, trying to catch up. Sti;lltrying to make a 2BR apt next door. down to the plumbing of the bathroom. Have most of the dry hung and finished. Lov from NCs...
