Happy Mother's Day!

I had a wonderful Mother's Day doing nothing!

Friends borrowed my camera but Andy documented our day with my cell phone. We went out to breakfast, I took Lilly to swim lessons, and we just hung out as a family which I really enjoy.


We also went to a garden center and picked out a dogwood tree for our yard. We picked out a Cornus Koupa ('Miss Satomi) which is a hybrid dogwood that was actually created at Rutgers University in New Jersey. Due to the Anthracnose disease, researchers at Rutgers University began hybridizing the Spring Flowering Dogwoods with the Chinese Dogwood. I love the look of the full grown dogwood; it has an Asian flare. Now I want it to hurry up and grow!

The best part was driving home with Andy hanging out of the back of the van holding the tree. I giggled the whole way home.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day!
