mom's day gifts

Yesterday I had plans to shop for my mom & Baron's mom in downtown Prattville for Mother's Day gifts. It was nearing 2:oo and we were still at some friends' {Mark & Michelle Thompson} house after eating lunch with them, their kids, and Baron's mom. At some point during the lunch conversation, Jane {Baron's mom} noticed a decorative tile that Michelle had on her counter. It was about 12x12 and it had a large cursive "T" painted on it. Jane really liked it, and I immediately thought about getting a tile for her & for my mom for Mother's Day. Then I thought, "I could so make one of those myself. And it would be cheaper. Hmmm." I told Baron about my idea, and when we left their house at about 3:00, I started working on the tiles. The tiles are so cheap that I got an extra to hopefully make one for us someday. :-) {P.S. Easels super cheap from Wal-Mart! Thanks, Better Homes & Gardens.} Here are the finished products:

Happy Mother's Day, Mom!!!

For those of you who know my mom, the news on the following video will not surprise you. Love you mom!! :-)

Saw this ad in a Tidbits newsletter yesterday:

Now tell me, would YOU want to go to college somewhere that includes typos in their ads??

redneck holiday

So apparently the Autauga county probate office celebrates Confederate Memorial Day. What's that about? Some of us have car tags that expire this week, and our off day is Monday, and we don't necessarily have time to drive all the way downtown only to be turned away by a sign posted on the door that the office is closed. BOOOOO. It should be a rule that government offices only close on WELL-KNOWN holidays.

Serenity now!!!
