Practicing before the game.

Game starts!

While the game is going on, Shane found friends to play soccer with.

Chicken breast on romaine lettuce… when the chef is on a diet…

Even though she hardly practices at home, she managed to sound decent. ;P Great Job everyone!

Chloe had a lacrosse game this morning and I heard that she SCORED TWO GOALS!!!! I’m so sorry I was not there to see it!

I’m having some girlfriends over tonight and here’s what I made:

Blackberry Ginger Moscow Mule

Ina Garten’s Baked Shrimp Scampi

Limoncello fruit Salad with lemon yogurt topping (also Ina Garten’s recipe)

Ready for a party!

Chloe got me lovely cards and a letter!

Chloe also gave me a candle and a deck of postcards as presents and Shane made me a flower pot.

At the end of the day, I noticed I didn’t get anything written from Shane aside from things he made for me from school… I called him out and told him I was sad that he didn’t give me a card. 🙁  A few minutes later, this paper airplane landed on my bed.

Andrew’s left yesterday for a business trip to Scotland and UK.
Chloe was sad about her dad leaving especially because he’ll miss mother’s day. She was also sick with a cold and allergies that she was stressing about for days for not being able to do much for me on mother’s day. She really is the sweetest girl!! As any mother’s would say, it’s the thought that counts! I know her heart and I am just so thankful for her love for me and her caring heart… I am so blessed!

She didn’t get me a beautiful breakfast-in-bed, but she did prepare breakfast for all of us, a simple toast and breakfast drinks before leaving early for church this morning.  She’s the best!

For lunch, I thought it would be nice to have my in-laws over for a meal to celebrate this special day with them . We had a lovely time. Happy mother’s day!

My work took me for an inspirational day – Exhibition by world-renowned artist Dale Chihuly at NYBG.

Truly a striking experience! His work was absolutely perfect.

While Chloe was doing yoga,

Shane and I had a sushi date. 🙂

Chloe joined Lacrosse this spring. I don’t really don’t know this sports but looking forward to seeing her play.

She’s gotten really busy these days with her sports. She practices lacrosse three times a week plus playing games, runs track on Wednesdays and does yoga on Thursdays.
