Happy Mother's Day

Today we celebrated Abby's first Mother's Day. (editor's note 1: Sorry Fenny, but the last four years did not technically count as Mother's Day for Abby).
We had a great day starting with OJ in bed for Abby followed by a trip to Starbucks and then Patachou for breakfast.

Later that day my parents came by for lunch. We grilled out, visited and opened gifts. (editor’s note 2: This weekend Abby’s parents were in Valpo so we were unable to celebrate, but we will be meeting them next weekend in Valpo for a belated Mother’s Day and to see some baseball).

After Lunch; Abby, Bennett, Fenny and I went on a long stroll. We stopped into Broad Ripple for some dessert at Red Mango along the way. Please take note of Bennett's pajamas below.

For dinner we popped a bottle of wine, grilled some chicken and put together various sides.

The night was capped off by a leisurely evening saunter and a family photo opp. Above is a picture of Fenny the way she typically reacts to any animate object. In this particular case it was a pair of mallards.

All in all I hope Abby had a great first Mother’s Day. She has done a wonderful job at raising Bennett, Fenny and I. We are all nothing short of thankful for her and very proud to call her our Mom.
