My mother’s day was just as lovely as I could have hoped! I got to sleep in, was greeted upon waking with flowers, donuts, coffee, and hugs! Marco drew a card for me, and I even received a special card from my fur babies! <3

We decided to go to the movies to see ‘The Pirates! Band of Misfits’, which was quite silly and fun. British humor is rather quirky. Rather. Ha, see what I did there? Right-o, Jeeves.

Marco and I both took an afternoon nap, and after, I was able to read in bed. Blissful silence…

For a special treat, Tim took Marco and I to dinner at the Calistoga Inn, one of our favorite haunts in the valley.

Tim, contemplating the dinner menu. It’s serious business, guys.

Marco, lookin’ handsome (as always!)

Marco’s smooches are the best mom’s day present!

Love the patio

Spring risotto!! Mmmm

I love this picture of us!

After dinner, Tim picked up a lemon-blueberry cheesecake for us to enjoy at home, and we settled in with a glass of wine and an episode of ‘Mad Men’. I was completely disappointed in Betty’s childish behavior (when will it cease??), and kind of furious with Don for his treatment of Ginsberg (whom I adore!), but otherwise I quite enjoyed our evening.

Here’s to the mamas!

P.S. My baby turns 2 in three days. Trying not to have a heart attack.
