The Gelinas Family: Mother's Day Weekend

Mother's day weekend was so nice. It started on Saturday with lunch and shopping in Olde Burien with the girls. My Mom, sisters and nieces came. A highlight was when mom received a gift from Dad. It was a ring with birthstones of the kids. What a thoughtful surprise!

On Sunday morning the weather was absolutely beautiful. I went for a bike ride and enjoyed the morning stillness while Bob and Brooke made my favorite breakfast of eggs, bacon, toast, orange slices and coffee. For a Mother's Day gift Bob built a much needed shelf in the laundry room. I know, not exactly exciting for anyone but it sure is for me! The weather began to turn and it was a perfect afternoon for kite flying. Hours were spent with Brooke running around in delight. Bob and Brooke topped off the day by making a delicious dinner complete with creme brule! We were able to enjoy that with my folks. What a perfect Mother's day. I am so blessed!
