Mother's Day was a great day for me--exactly one week after my birthday, and a very sunny and warm Sunday. I spent enough money on myself during our trip to Florida to cover gifts for both my b-day and Mother's Day, so all I wanted from Justin was a reprieve from changing diapers. I got my diaper-free day, and more! I was totally spoiled, from having breakfast and dinner prepared for me, to deciding the agenda for the day (which was to just enjoy the outdoors together and relax). Our walk to our neighborhood plateau and beach was my favorite part of the day. The water in Lake Champlain was at it's highest point in over 100 years that day (and it is still quite high--like 3 feet above normal level), so we probably won't have a beach this summer, but we'll still have lake access...a few feet closer, even! Yikes! The flooding in the Champlain Valley in May 2011 is one for the history books, which is why I mention it here, for posterity. Our house has been fine, thank goodness, but there is A LOT of terrible damage everywhere around us.
Anyway, enjoy a few pics from Mother's Day 2011!
