Magnolia Trees Make Me Happy :)

I'm sitting on my couch, looking out at the most beautiful Magnolia tree in my neighbor's yard across the street.  The blooms only last a very, very short time, but they sure are magnificent while they're here.

Robin (Masshole Mommy) put a post up on Facebook today that really made me laugh. You can see it here if you want to laugh too. If you follow Robin's blog (& if you don't you should :) ), you know she's the least lazy mom ever, always out and about and doing something. That makes the post even funnier.

It reminded me of a trip my son and I took to the grocery store about a year ago.  We were walking around getting groceries, and my son said fairly loudly (or so it seemed to me), "Don't forget the beer mom." Well, I don't even drink beer so it totally caught me off guard.  Of course I said, "I don't even drink beer." And he replied with, "Yes, you do. You drink beer all the time."  To a bystander I'm sure it sounded like I was trying to weasel out of being ousted as a drinker, lolol. Silly boy...and he said it so nonchalantly and realistically too. It's a good thing he's cute, that's all I've got to say about that... ;)

My daughter had a school dance last night. She's officially been to more school dances than either of her older brothers & she's only a Freshman.  She's always loved to be on the dance floor though, so I'm not a bit surprised.

Dad's taken the kids to T-Ball today (his first time having a day off to go to a game).  I'm at home...because the family gets so sneaky come holiday shopping time (Mother's Day ;) ).  It's a beautiful day for T-Ball, AND for yard work, which is what I'll be doing all day.

 I'm so so so loving this weather.  And the Magnolia Trees. :)

It's going to be a great Saturday!!
