I had the best Mother's Day this year! Friday night we stayed in and grilled because we just bought a new table for our deck. We were pretty excited to use it. It's probably one of my favorite pieces that we own.
Saturday the weather was gorgeous. Porter had a t-ball game (which is still going really well) and once that was over we hung around the field for a little bit and went home for nap time.
Once the boys woke up we thought it would be fun to go downtown Minneapolis to get a bite to eat. Well it turned out to be a huge shit show! Porter woke up from his nap crabby and Campbell was off as well. He didn't nap so I think he was tired. We ate at
Punch Pizza (if you remember my story a few months ago when I took them their by myself and all hell broke loose) and Porter didn't want his pizza and cried and Campbell wanted to throw this milk all over the place and when we tried taking it away he'd loose his mind. It was a very interesting dinner. I'm sure the people sitting next to us didn't envious at all. I sure wouldn't. Maybe we need to stop eating there. But things turned around because after dinner we took the boys to
Izzy's Ice Cream. Best ice cream in town by far! Campbell has never have an ice cream cone before so it was pretty comical watching him try to eat it. There's a park across the street so we played and ran around and they boys were actually really happy and had fun.
My loves
Sunday (Mother's Day) my wonderful husband let me sleep in and when I woke the boys gave me their presents from school that they made. Porter was really excited! They are the cutest things ever. I just love them to pieces.
Josh got me custom drapes for our bedroom that we both have wanted since we moved into our house over three years ago. To say I'm excited is an understatement. Here's the pattern we chose. It's going to change the whole look of our bedroom. Stay tuned!
We went out to brunch at
Lunds and Byerlys Kitchen and since it was Mother's Day I got a free mimosa.
Typical family photo
After brunch we headed to the field again because Porter had another game. We weren't sure it was going to happen because it rained on and off all morning. But the rain stopped and held off until the game ended. After the game we ran a few errands and the boys slept in the car (one of us was always in the car with them of course). One place I needed to go was
Anthropologie (which is another post) because they were having a sale that was 20% off anything in the store. As long as I've been shopping there I've never seen this kind of sale. I grabbed a few pieces I've been eyeing for a while. My husband just laughed at me when I came out with the bags. Hey it's Mother's Day for pete sakes!
Sunday night we had a sitter come over and Josh and I went to
112 Eatery with one of my best friends and her husband. It was the perfect way the end the perfect day.
