Mother's Day with Gina in Seattle


Saturday afternoon, Jim and I drove north to Seattle. Our daughter Gina invited us up for Mother's Day. We arrive about 9 PM and spent the night chatting until it was after midnight! Eric is on tour, so we didn't get to see him. We all slept in and Gina fixed us a wonderful brunch. Their home is lovely and very comfortable. Here's my baby cooking me breakfast!


We had an egg and veggie dish, potatoes and fresh fruit....along with lots of Seattle coffee. You have to drink coffee in Seattle!


This is my grandpup....Rico! He is a cutie and such a companion. I'm not a big dog fan, but I have to admit, this little guy stole my heart away. He is a good little dog.



After breakfast, Gina took us to her favorite nursery....Swanson's. Oh my, oh my! It was an adventure! It was the most awesome nursery I have ever visited. It's a good thing this isn't in my neighborhood. You can see Jimmy sitting on a bench doing some people watching. Gina and I spent 2 hours looking at everything and doing some shopping!



This red peony was just beautiful! Gina was soooo tempted, but decided to think about it for awhile.


A pink beauty!


The nursery is divided up for easy shopping!


The roses are blooming a bit early in the Pacific Northwest....isn't this a pretty one?


I took a picture of this lovely plant so I could find it back home. I just love the flowers.


I think Gina was in heaven! Look at that smile.


The last section we visited was the Asia building with so many different maples. I wanted them all!



Thank you Gina for making my Mother's Day so special. I love you lots and am blessed  to be your mom.
