Weekend ReCap


                                               Received some beautiful flowers this weekend.


                                Bought some pretty dish towels at Target. Yellow makes me happy.


               Saturday we went to Calabasas and had a lovely lunch outside at SAGEBRUSH.


                                 Admired my favorite Canyon ...... Reminds me of Tuscany.


          The last picture is what my Mother's Day View looked liked. I pretty much had a
      wonderful weekend....filled with love and great food. I hope all of you momma's had a
                                                              great weekend too!!
