I'm blogging out of order! I vow to myself to catch up! These photos are out of order too! Ah!
So I blog backwards! Oh, that is too hard.
On Friday I texted my son and told him to go to my friend Sherry's store and have her choose a Mother's Day gift for me and wrap it, and he could pay for it and give it to me! All men need a little help from woman in their lives to choose for other woman, right?
I came home three hours later and asked him if he had gotten my text and his reply was, "You've never spent this much money on me for my birthday!" Oh, that makes me smile every time I think of it.
So I was anticipating what it would be for two days! Anticipation is fun!
After church, he gave me the gift and it was this Vera Bradley bag for my iPad!
Here is a better photo that is not so blurry. I love green, and especially lime green lately, so the print is perfect for me. I do not often like many Vera Bradley prints, but I do like this one. The black, grey, and white with splashes of lime green is perfect for me!
I take my iPad to church because it contains my Bible and often wonder what people think of me carrying it around, so now I can hide it! It can be put inside or on either outer pocket. There's enough room in the pockets for my keys and cell pone and other things that I might grab from my purse, so I only have to take in one bag. Cool, huh?
Here is the pretty wrapping it came in. It's the prettiest wrapping job my son has ever done for me! Giggle
I told him that at least every time someone comments on my iPad bag, I can brag about my son, so it's all a good thing.
I did get a call from my oldest son during Bible study, but could not answer it, and he and his wife called back in the evening and we had a nice chat.
I did get a text from my youngest son right after we returned home from church, but he did not answer his phone when I called right back. I thought that was all I would get from him, but then as we were getting in bed at 11 p.m., the phone rang and it was him! That was sweet! Yes, I do not care what time it is, just call mom!
Hubby and I decided to go to the winery near where his mom is buried (for Mom's Day) and we had a nice afternoon, but did not stay all that long. I was exhausted all weekend. I had even slept 11 hours the night before which is a very long time for me. Usually I sleep about 6.
I began wondering why Ria's first bag did not fit for her. We bought a new $5 bag and it is not sturdy, but tried it just for size. I realized it was an inch less in width than her first bag, but just a few inches taller.
So we tried out her bag again, because I do not like taking her inside the winery on a leash, and here she is in the photo saying, "let's go, mom! it's mom's day!"
She is in it backwards and it works well. The cut out on the other end is supposed to be for her face and it is funny with her little tail sticking out there. She tends to slide out on that end.
So, we need a bag just like this, but a bit taller.
She loves her bag still. She gets right in it and it is so cute! She knows it means we get to go out!
