I have to say that I really liked this.

This year I asked the fam to skip the cards, etc. All I wanted was a clean garage. And really, I meant it.

I was doubly surprised when my tupperware cabinet (a disaster prone area) was also cleaned out and the kids and dh assembled the goods for my favorite breakfast (NOT served in bed, thank you very much--besides, I got up REALLY early for an 8am soccer match).

My mom and her dh came over later for home cooked Mexican and by my mom's request, my famous carrot cake.

My mother's day was truly blessed. It's nice to know that our choices bucked the norm....and I LOVE the fact that my garage is all clean.

Hope your day was wonderful, too.
