Sunday 8th~~~~~~Today was Mother's Day for all of us Mothers in the world. Of course all my girls want to spend the day with their mother and also with their families, so we got together and decided to have a party at my house at 2:00PM and we would all fix the food. We left it open as to what you wanted to bring and as usual it was so much fun with so much food. We planned to play cards and sit the food out for everyone to eat or snack as they got hungry. Lisa made a pot of Chile and a corn bread salad, Pammy made two kinds of meat balls, Tress a salad and a new brownie recipe that everyone asked for a copy of the recipe. I fixed a vegetable relish tray, chips and dip and I baked a chocolate cake with the favorite family frosting recipe. Jean Marie fixed deviled eggs and a dessert. Billy bought the drinks and more dessert. The best surprise of all was Shelby who now has her own apartment came with a double layer chocolate cake with chocolate frosting that she made herself from scratch. We really had fun with two tables of card players stopping after the first game for more snacks and dessert and then changing partners and playing another game of hand and foot. What a great time we had together and I feel so blessed to have such a beautiful family who loves to get together and celebrate our many special events in life. To all you Mothers who read this, happy late Mother's Day!!!!
