Yes, I got my Mother's Day gifts last weekend (and I'm still SO excited about them!!!), but this was a great weekend, too.
We bought and planted flowers in the planters by the front door:
I have a Stella D'Oro Daylily
that I planted last year. It did very well and I really liked it, so I decided to try another version of daylily in the planters across the walkway from it:
These are supposed to be a pink-purple color. Can't wait to see them bloom!
Hubby bought lots of mulch and did a lot of work in the backyard:
He also purchased flowers and planted our windowboxes:
A very sweet man- friend of hubby's- gave me flowers for Mother's Day:
My favorite flower is daisies, and I love the purple, too- so these are really great! Thanks, again Jay!
Hubby reminded me that I wasn't getting a gift from him this weekend because I got my bike and the trailer last weekend. I remembered, and it didn't bother me at all. I think we had a great weekend.
Oh- and I treated myself to a yard of a fabric that I've been drooling over. I really wanted this with a blue or green background, but I guess it's been selling out all over the place- red was my only option. If this came with a purple background, I'd buy it in a second- I want it in my kitchen! As it is, I'm considering re-painting my purple kitchen just so I can use this fabric because I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!
Mary Engelbreit rocks.

Thanks, John! I spent well over an hour on their website last night... I found a couple of fabrics that I really liked! (Great prices, too- I'm jealous.)
