Mother's Day, Mother-Daughter getaway, and Memorial Day mean that 'M' days rule in the month of May. We are still enjoying a visit from Kate and her girls, so enjoy this installment of my blog!
We were blessed to get to spend Mother's Day at sis-in-law Becky's place, and she knows how to put on the shindig! Seafood and all the fixin's! Here is Wes and his Mom Sylvia, Mom, Mawmaw.
So very thankful that at 88 years young she is still going strong!
Mother's Day was filled with cards and calls from my kids. Son-in-law Ryan surprised me with this beautiful floral arrangement.
Kate had suggested some time back that we do a mother-daughter getaway in Fredericksburg, so this is our B&B for the weekend.
The accommodations were wonderful, and it was so nice to just enjoy each other.
We shopped, and ate, and ate, and even made a connection with the lady at the Pioneer Museum, who had been married to her husband by Wes's grandfather, Wesley Otto Schulze. Amazing!
Memorial Day found us at the VFW post in Liberty Hill, where Wes gave the keynote speech. His granddaughters were impressed!
Wes spoke about his mom's first husband Carroll Smith, who was killed in WWII. He challenged the attendees to be 'living memorials', reminding others of the sacrifices made for our country.
Some of our church friends who were enjoying the free pancake breakfast, and the free entertainment from Mercedes and Evangeline.
The girls sharing their blanket with Wild Child, 'W' for short.
You can tell a lot about Mercedes and Evangeline by their playscape activities. Mercedes is the smiling teller.
Evangeline is the fearless one-year-old.
And all she wants is to GET ON THAT TRAIN!
You may have heard about Wes's legendary breakfast drink. His grands really like it.
We'll save this pic for the future hubby!
Whoa! You want me to do WHAT, with WHAT?
Our beautiful Mercedes, playing the waitress adding sugar to the tea. We had a wonderful Memorial Day.
