Happy Mother's Day!

What a CUTE cookie Jill brought down!  The kids LOVED eating the frosting!

Jill and I had planned on seeing a movie this last weekend but the 2 movies that we would have enjoyed both moved on and the two that came were NOT movies we wanted to see.  So we did the next best thing - called over to Cripple Creek to see if we could get in for tea on Saturday afternoon!

AND WE DID!!  Jill had never been over there for tea so she was in for a real treat!  Glenn watched the kids and we headed over for 12:00 tea!  The owner had the table set for spring!  And even had cute little mirrors in darling bags at our table for a Mothers Day gift!

I think Jill was very surprised by all the food we received!  First up was a fruit bowl which consisted of cantaloupe, fresh peaches and grapes!  I was full by the time I stopped eating that!

We decided the cucumber sandwiches were the best!  Since the little ham ones had mustard and Jill isn't fond of that, I traded the hummus for the ham and it all worked out good!!

Jill tried a couple of different teas as like me, she is not a big tea drinker but 1/2 the fun is just drinking out of those darling cups!

For dessert we had the usual sconces with homemade whipped cream but the other part was switched up to a huge piece of delicious lemon pie - wow was it rich!!  We talked and talked and decided it would be fun to bring the little girls over here - the owner said we just need to let her know and she'll plan it out!

Sunday we woke up to gray cloudy skies with snow moving in!!  Parker and Aleah couldn't wait to hand me my gift and card (which I'll blog about next)!  A quick picture and then we loaded Jill and the kids up as it had started to snow by mid-morning!  Unfortunately she had a tough drive home on Mothers Day..............Thanks for coming down Jill - it was a great weekend!!
