Since I had already bought my mother her Mother’s Day gift I let my kids shop for me for Mother’s Day.  We had a $40 Gift Card to Sam’s Club to shop with.  I made this a challenge for my kid’s!  They were to pick out a few things for me that would fit the $40 budget.

I thought this would be simple, but there was so much to choose from that it took them a little while to work it all out!  They looked at the flowers, which were gorgeous and within the budget.  There were many beautiful choices!

We especially loved the flowering cactus!

We found this gorgeous arrangement that comes in a photo frame box!  It was pretty awesome!

There were plenty of display areas out to make shopping for gifts a bit easier.  They had the nice bath sets, book selections, Purses, robes and many more wonderful gift items!  I even found this lovely display out for Mother’s Day!  I’ll leave this one for the Hubby to get me…

Check out what my children actually got for me while staying within the $40 budget!

They also picked out a 2 CD set of Celtic Music for me.  That was only $9.88!  I think they picked out some great things and was proud of them for making the choices that kept it within the budget they were given.  You can check out more of the great deals for this Mother’s Day by clicking here and scrolling down to where it says Mother’s Day Gifts.

Don’t forget about the Grim Grill Contest!!

Sam’s Club provided me with a $40 gift card for my participation in this campaign from April 26th through May 24th.

We’ve had a few sunny days!  I am so thankful for the sun right now!   After weeks of rain, a crazy few days of snow…now everything seems to be getting back on track.  Don’t get me wrong…I’m not wanting summer, but I sure would welcome spring!  Nice sunny days with a breeze!  Sounds perfect!

We just signed Morgan up for Softball again and she is so excited for training to start in a few weeks.  I’ll be happy to take her and get some outdoor time with my camera and a book. We skipped last year, but this year she was ready to pick it back up!

One thing that the nice days brings out is happy horses!  I’m so happy to see them up by the fences when I go to the J-mans grandmothers house.  They are happy to see me too!  Very friendly and very nosy! Check out this nosy horse for my Wordless Wednesday that is never very wordless…
