My mom flew in town on July 24th, which is the same day that my dad passed away nine years ago. It's always a hard day but it was great to have her there. Matt watched the kids that afternoon while we went down to Buckhead to check out the malls. After shopping, we ate at Atlanta fish market to celebrate her upcoming birthday on the 28th. It turned out to be a great day.
Meema stayed until Sunday so we got to spend lots of time together. Friday night, we watched the opening Olympics ceremony together. Roman really enjoyed it too!
Saturday, July 28th was Meema's birthday. We started the day with French toast for breakfast and presents.
I got us matching bracelets from Stella and Dot. My friend, Amy sells the jewelry and told me about these special bracelets. All of the proceeds went to ovarian cancer research. My mom loved it! Except she thought she lost it while on our shopping trip to the outlet mall later that afternoon. She had the workers at Chic fil A digging in the trash can looking for her bracelet. Sure enough one of the workers found it in Ann Taylor. Thank goodness!
We love you Meema! So glad you could come visit!!
