Mother's Day post 2.0

I realized while Blogger was down that I'd posted pictures of my early Mother's Day gift, but never got around to posting pictures of the day itself!


The girl who made me a mommy!
She's enjoying her peanut butter and jelly pancakes!


The little naked one.
Also enjoying Daddy's genius pancakes!


Keelin planted a flower for me at school.
Sweet girl!


Boiling a small chicken, carrots, onions, garlic, and celery to make my chicken broth.


The finished product- chicken and dumplings!



Fresh veggies!


Roasted veggies!


My new favorite- blueberry loaf!
I used a recipe for blueberry muffins and then baked it in a loaf pan instead of a muffin tin.
Turned out really well!

My mom and her partner of ten years came by to eat lunch with us and enjoy a few presents!
We got a large pot and spineless succulents that she put together in the back yard with the kids.
Very fun!

She got me a gift certificate for another pair of TOMS shoes.

Em, I'm no cook! Everything I make is super easy- if you can make your killer black bean burgers, you can make anything on here. That's for sure!

Farm Fresh Decor is my new happy! Every single picture looks like something I would do at our house<3 Can't wait for you to see the Mason jar pendant light I'm working on!

Tia, I thought they'd be too bright until I saw them in person. I'm trying to wear more color, so I figured red was a safe bet.
