This Mother's Day was pretty low key, but wonderful just the same. In typical holiday style, Ben and I spent the day traveling between houses. The funny thing is, I didn't mind AT ALL. I'm done complaining about driving around on the holidays. Ben and I used to always ask ourselves why we do all the driving...perhaps we could host some of the holidays at our house. But the truth is, most holidays are so steeped in tradition and love that it would feel odd to have them hosted at another place. There will come a day when holidays are held at our home...but that day will probably be when those we love and cherish most are no longer here with us and we get to carry on their legacy. So for now, I'm enjoying life with the one's I love, even if that means driving all over Southern California to do it!!
Here are some pictures of our day. We started out in Yucaipa for breakfast with my Mom and family. My mom and I escaped for some shopping and then we headed out to my mother-in-law's house for dinner and desert. I can honestly say that I'm blessed with the best family in the world!! I love them all.
