Mother's Day 2010

Mother's Day started with Linda spending the day with me on Friday.  My  blood pressure was so high they wanted to check it at the hospital before giving me a prescription.  The cardiac doctor Dr. Rubenson visited with us as well and then ordered the doppler test done again on both the left and the right side.  So Linda took me to lunch and the documentary 'Babies' before going back for the tests at 3.  I appreciated so much her staying with me the whole day, we had lots of good conversation.

On Friday evening the Hardy children gave me lovely cards they had written themselves.

On Saturday Maria, James, Jacob, Lea, Jimmy, Kelsi and I had lunch at Rubios (I tried the new Mahi, Mahi) and then saw the documentary 'Oceans'.  We all enjoyed the movie very much except for Kelsi.  She only likes "kid shows" so James spent a lot of time outside with her.

On Sunday James and Lea took me over to Ben and Sharon's home where Sharon's Mom, Sister and their families were getting together and we were meeting Maria and Johnny.  Ben and Bob (Johnny's father) grilled really tender chicken, so good.

We practically raised our children side by side in our early days.  I will never forget our Disneyland trip and many, many trips to the beach and other places.  Ben and Sharon just happen to be Johnny's aunt and uncle.  Small world!  I didn't get a picture of Johnny's parents Bob and Suzie but Suzie reminded me we had had a baby shower for her in my Pacific Beach home when she was pregnant with daughter Michelle! 

Camber gave me a bouquet of roses.  So sweet of her.

Johnny gave me a bouquet at Sharon's house along with his Mom, Aunt, and Grandmother.  So thoughtful of him.

 

Lea picked roses from around the yard and gave me a lovely bouquet. So nice of her.

It was a lovely Mother's Day weekend and so fun to see old friends and children all grown up with their children.  I should have gotten pictures.
