Texas girls are very, very pretty girls...inside and out!
I love how gorgeous they all looked and how long
these two have maintained their bestie friendship....
don't they look amazing....just like Cinderella for the evening!
Miss Abbie worked to pay one-half the cost of her gown...
now that's a great kiddo!
All I had heard was her gown was baby blue....
They danced the night away....
a good time had by all!
Now it's on to graduation day in a few weeks!
Miss M and I are doing the graduation party "cake table"
which I am super excited about.....the darling and I went to Dallas
on Saturday morning and ordered her special cake from Stein's Bakery,
which is the oldest bakery in Dallas.
I think this is going to turn out so cute...hopefully
and will be something she will enjoy and remember!
They're hosting a big Texas barbecue!!!
This is one of my favorite family photos from the past,
that I posted on FB in honor of my Mother.....
my second birthday celebration with Miss Judy to the right...
Vicksburg, Mississippi!
We are in the 90's already, so it's a task of watering everyday....
I received a gorgeous summer bouquet from our youngest,
Robbie from down in Austin...there is nothing that
brings a smile more than receiving fresh flowers....
Then, another package arrived from Crate and Barrel
which was this darling little collection from Reese Witherspoon's
Draper James collection....the Atlanta family knows me all to well...
isn't this adorable?
Mae Mobley was enjoying some Papa time while basking in a sunbeam.....
Sunday morning was Mother's Day and the
darling treated me to blueberry and sprinkle donuts from
Dunkin' Donuts.....my favorite!!!
We were able to spend the afternoon with Nick
who presented me with this lovely, lovely set
from Opal House....oh my, I cannot wait to entertain with this....
Greg and Jenn sent me this absolutely gorgeous
Hummingbird feeder.....I am just over the moon with all
these lovely gifts....I adore my children!
It was absolutely wonderful spending the afternoon
with our only child left living close enough to visit......
we had a marvelous lunch of
chicken and dressing, mashed potatoes, green beans
and
banana pudding....a real southern late lunch.
I do so love this kid....he is a wonderful son and father...husband too....
Miss Cat was enjoying lunch with her own mother.....
Wowza....looks like Miss Elizabeth was spending her
Mother's Day in total relaxation....
Hope you all enjoyed your special day!
