A Happy Mother's Day

When I was asked what I wanted to do on Mother's Day afternoon, I told Tad and the boys that I wanted to go to a park and take some pictures of the family. Believe me, they reminded me more than once that it was my idea and not theirs, but they went along with my idea and I did get some nice photos. Only one photo of the 4 of us turned out very well, but I got some nice shots of the boys separately and together.

The photos were taken at Owen Memorial Rose Garden. None of the roses are blooming yet, but by this time next month it will start looking real nice. There were a couple nice dogwoods in bloom and a type of magnolia tree that I hadn't seen before.


After the photo session at the park we headed back home and Tad fixed a barbecue dinner for his parents, brother, niece and us. It was really nice. I didn't have anything else that I really wanted to do at the time so I helped get the salads ready even though he protested. His brother brought angel food cake with strawberries and cream. Most of us played a 9 "hole" game of golf, a card game. They let me win. (Well, I don't think that was really their intention.)

It was a nice day.
