It's the thought that counts.

We had a nice, pretty relaxing weekend. On Saturday we went to a couple of Cinco de Mayo BBQs with friends. No shortage of delicious Mexican food and good white people fun.

Today, we headed down to the farmers market. The sun finally came out this weekend which inspired us to actually leave the house on Sunday. The farmers market is just down the street at what will be Hudson's elementary school. He loves going there thinking about his next adventure (and eating fresh fruit and crushed ice drenched in corn syrup.)











Oh, and we made a cake (brownies.) This was inspired by a revelation that Hudson had early (6am) this morning. He woke me up and was ecstatic....

"Mom, I have the BEST idea for Mother's Day! Something VERY special!"

"Really? Great, what is it?"

"I want to make my dad a CAKE!"

Of course I tried to explain to him what Mothers day was, but he wasn't having it. His mind was already made up and he had even picked out the perfect cake to make out of our Birthday cake cook book. Pictured here.


Sweet Hudson. That looks like something we can just "whip up" real fast for DAD for Mother's day, today.

So, we improvised with this.



Ghiradelli chocolate/Carmel brownies. Out of a box.

What can I say, I always tell Hudson "you have to give, to get." So here you go E, Happy Mother's Day and don't forget about this next Sunday.
