The days leading up to Mother's Day was filled with lots and lots of whispering and plotting between Elianna and my Chris and even my own dear mother got pulled into it. The morning began with me waking up with an extreme charlie horse while my husband and daughter sat waiting for it to subside so they could properly wish me a Happy Mother's Day. Nice, huh? After I could see straight again and was no longer in pain, I saw flowers, a gift, cards, a chocolate covered strawberry, and breakfast which consisted of a filled donut with bacon on top. Yes, pretty much the best way to wake up in the morning (minus the charlie horse of course).
Chris spoke at a church in Sedalia (Plum Creek Chapel) and then we spent the day with my cousin and his family. I did end up doing my Walmart grocery shopping which is nice to have crossed off my list already. Then we left Elianna and Grace with Tyler and us parents headed off to a crawfish county boil.
We did have to watch a video or 2 until we got the hang of how to peel them so they could be devoured. We (read Chris) then decided that all the heads would make a wonderful stock so we brought home all those eyeballs and pinchers and legs.
Then we decided that we couldn't go home quite yet so we went to an ice cream/gelato store that had the most delicious banana pudding ice cream. It tasted just like banana pudding - it was just a little colder because it was, of course, ice cream. So good! May even be worth a daily drive. Ha! Just kidding - every other day.
