Happy Mother's Day 2012

Happy Mother's Day to everyone!   It was a lovely day in Central Arkansas today.  Was just about perfect weather-wise.  I got some nice presents and I have just taken life easy today.  DD#2 had a horse show today so we will have dinner with her tomorrow night.  Grand-dog, Toby, came to spend the weekend with us.  I've been knitting on my Skyp Socks this weekend. 

Hope everyone had a good weekend.
