I had a fantastic Mother's Day this year. Zach came to me carrying a large wrapped present and loudly exclaimed "Happy Mother's Day, Mummy!". This had been well rehearsed and was very cute. We went to the park for a picnic lunch. Zach played in the playground and we all kicked around the soccer ball. In the evening, we took my Mother In Law out to dinner. We took the Nintendo DS to keep Zach happy but he was off playing in the kid's section for most of the night, with the odd break for watermelon and icecream. I wrapped his nuggets and chips in four napkins and took it home with us.
And without further ado, here are my presents!
Sparkly Card !!!
Hubby got me a Clinique Happy Heart perfume pack which qualified for the Clinique Gift With Purchase, so here is a combination of both those gifts. Let me just say...... WOOT !!!!!!!!!!!
And here's why some products are missing. I have put them away in this ......
It's a Makeup Organiser!! So exciting! You should have seen me making the Very Important Decision of which makeup was special enough to make the cut. I could probably fill 4 of these.
And here's my little man. Watching TV. Love you Zach!!
Did you have a good Mother's Day?
My latest self-manicure is a bit of a departure from my usual bright colours. I've finally gotten around to trying the Butter London nailpolish I won ages ago. It's very conservative. The shade is called 'Yummy Mummy'. Well I don't know if I'd go quite that far. It's very mushroomy. I hate mushrooms. Take a look at the pics, and know that my next mani will be something BRIGHT!
