Extending it for TWO weekends!

You rarely ever see my mom in something other then blue... she's ALWAYS loved blue!  You can ask my friends from childhood - they'll tell you she always was a blue-freak.  Even when Oprah told everyone to stop wearing blue eye shadow in the 80's, my mom said "WATCH ME OPRAH" & kept it going, & now, look at it - blue eyeshadow is BACK... to my mom, its never been gone! By the way, Oprah  now wears blue eyeshadow... my mom points that out....

So when I found this blue Smiley Face cookie - how perfect is it for her?  And yes, the envelope is blue too.  I dont care if the envelope that comes with that card isnt blue - you better search through all the other cards until you can find a blue one to fit... you'll hear about it if you hand over any other color!

I had a wonderful Mother's day with my momma... she's probably one of the funniest people I have in my life.  I've always said, she can make me laugh harder then any person I know of.  So we spend the day just kicking back with my daddy & watching TV, looking through my old books & kindergarden drawings & stories I wrote for contests in elementary school (Oh wow - some of these books... no wonder I'm not a published author!)  We had lunch & ate on cookie all day... it was just a perfect day...

And Mother's Day will continue to this coming weekend because....

Yep, we're going to see the Broadway Play WICKED on Sunday!  I gave her a wicked witch magnet & a Glenda magnet to represent the show - how clever am I?  Which she probably already has like 10 of each - but it was still cute.  You see, my mom is a Wizard of Oz NUT... I mean NUT doesnt even express her obsession with the movie... she has the most amazing collection - words dont even express... so WICKED is going to be even more fun for her...

Has anyone seen WICKED?  Did you love it?  Are we going to be "Defying Gravity" when we leave the show?

Love that Mother's Day gets TWO weekends for my momma... she deserves it... she's one cool chick...

  7. Great gift! I have heard Wicked is so good. I wanted to go, but opted to by Mary Poppins tickets for the girls instead. Let us know how it is.

    LOVE the blue cookie, by the way.

  18. you srsly get the "best daughter ever" award. I love that you share such an awesome relationship. I bought some bright blue eyeshadow last year - but didn't wear it for long - now that I know Oprah is wearing it - I may need to revisit :D

  19. Fun! I've only ever read the book, and never understood how people could like the musical...the book is raunchy! Having talked to people about it, I found out that they changed a lot...I'd want to see it!
