Mother's Day 2012

Mother's Day started off early with a brunch at Samantha's preschool.

I got a cute framed picture.

And as an added bonus, I got to have brunch with both kids.

 I love my art work too!

On actual Mother's Day I woke up to this.

 We had a nice brunch at Cafe Stella.

And then we headed north for some sunshine in Los Olivos.

A new Refugio Ranch tasting room just opened up.

Next up, Sarloos and Sons for a cupcake tasting.

We made a stop at the Coquelicot tasting room.

 Last stop, Cold Springs Tavern where we had the best tri-tip sandwich EVER!

Thank you sweet family for my special day!

Night Owls

These are the kind of apology notes I get from my husband when he keeps the kids up too late (which makes it harder for me to get them up in the morning.....).

Sunshine, Sprinklers and Swimming

My Lunch Dates

Thatcher's New Do

So, my luck ran out with the fantastic haircuts at Fantastic Sams.....

A few months ago I took Thatcher back there to have his haircut

and within the time it took me to snap this picture, he had a complete bowl around his head.  I'm talking a really, REALLY bad bowl haircut.  I think it is funny that both Thatcher and the lady cutting his hair are all smiles because I was completely mortified!

We ended up having a friend "un-bowl" it the best she could and then a few weeks ago I took him in to 19 Blue and said, "Cut it and make it SHORT!" I wanted no trace of the bowl.

Not only did he remove the bowl and cut it short, he added on about 2 years to Thatcher's age!  My baby boy was no longer looking like a baby. :(

 

I will say, he is looking very handsome with his new do!
