Gone Fishin' For Mother's Day

On Sunday we ventured out to church and then for a special treat, we hit up the Treehouse Coffee shop for some yummy mother's day chow.  It seemed that every place serving breakfast was PACKED with the influx of mom's and their broods trying to enjoy enjoying a little pampering amidst the wiping of hands, faces, butts..., but no matter, we were able to claim a huge overstuffed couch that we happily lounged on.  We love the Treehouse and don't get there nearly as often as we would like; they feature organic coffee and light fare that includes vegan and gluten free treats, YUM!

After we got home we relaxed for awhile before Uncle A.J. and Aunt Maggie came over.  As the day went on somehow it was decided that we should take Jackson on his first fishing trip.  Jackson had received a fishing pole for his birthday and Frank was anxious to use it!  After to trip to the sporting goods store for some fishing essentials, license, and a new pole for daddy (it turned into a more costly trip then we had anticipated) we were ready to hit the great out doors (pond in a little wooded area about a mile or so from our house). 

And, the fishing began......for about 15 minutes......

unfortunatly only Aunt Maggie caught something....

I know I say it often, but I am so thankful that this little guy is why I am a Mama!

Happy Mother's Day to all of you fabulous Mama's out there....especially my own Mom and my fabulous Mother-in-law!  I love you!
