Early tomorrow morning, we are leaving on what we hope will be an amazing trip sailing in the British Virgin Islands. I should be in bed, but I just had to write about my wonderful, sweet boys.
Like last year, I am going to miss Mother's Day. Because I was going to be here today and had planned to celebrate Mother's Day today, I thought we would be ok. However, when D-man found out we weren't going to be here on Sunday, there were tears. Lots of tears. How sweet that he wants to be with me on Mother's Day. Fortunately, we recovered and had a very nice day.
After a morning watching the boys play flag football (on what seemed like a cool, fall day), we headed to the Avenue Grill for a Mother's Day Brunch. We all had some great food and I enjoyed the make your own Bloody Mary bar (where Marshall made me a great concoction) and Claudia enjoyed the coffee bar. Marshall and Claudia ventured to the spice shop after brunch and then we had a busy afternoon of errands getting ready for the trip.
We had a nice scallop and pasta dinner and enjoyed some white wine Marshall bought for Claudia. D-man had a poem and a wonderful tribute for me, while Tanner drew a picture of me and him at the beach. Such sweet, sweet boys - I'm a lucky Mom and will miss them dearly while we are gone. Who knows? Maybe I'll actually be around next year to celebrate on the "real" Mother's Day.
