Mothers, And Then Some

The Moms were out in force yesterday . . .

. . . and so, miraculously, was the sun.

It has been a long run around here without that orb brightening our days, and we were all delirious with joy.

I even had a sister-friend in the house . . .

. . . our lovely Eldest . . .

Cheer up, MB.

And My Girl Nancy joined the festivities . . .

. . . as did a sister-in-law or two . . .

"Life is Good."

There were tours of The Field . . .

. . . really, it is quite a Field.

And there were burger masters mastering burgers . . .

. . . and here please imagine the photo I should have taken of the spread: burgers, dogs, lobster mac-'n'-cheese, bean salad, chopped salad, fruit salad, deviled eggs.

OH MY GOD I FORGOT TO SERVE THE CHIPS.

And the pickles. Sigh.

We refused to leave the sun's embrace so set ourselves up a kids' table down on the grass. Look at that blue sky! I knew I remembered that the sky is sometimes blue.

And then when even the lower 40 were in shadow, we hit the front porch . . .

. . . where Mom and MB channeled their inner Evitas.

"Don't cry for me, Argentina . . . "

Those two really should rule a country or two.

They'd sure look good doing it.

It was a Day for the Ages. What a Time we had.

Look: I'll prove it:

Right??

An epic Sunday Funday Mother's Day Sun Day.
