Mother's Day

Yesterday was Julie's first "Mother's Day" and to fulfill her wish, we went out for a little walk in the park, and had a nice afternoon "tea" complete with scones (thank you Traci), fresh strawberries, and hot tea.  In case you're wondering, the park is Hovander and is up in Ferndale.  It's a huge park and has old barns, an old homestead, an orchard, a few gardens, some old tractors, tons of open grass fields for picnics and gatherings, and a beautiful lake with a board-walk that goes out (we didn't make it to the boardwalk).


At any rate, here are some pictures from our day as well as a video.  As always, click here to see all the pics.


"Happy Mother's Day Julie - you are my best friend, and an incredible mother! Brennan couldn't have it any better.






And to my Mom, Carolyn, who is no longer with us, and to Grammi Martie, who is also in heaven, Happy Mother's Day. You are not forgotten and your love you showed us will be passed on. Below, my Mom's favorite flower, "lily of the valley."







Get it?  A "flower bed."
