Mother's Day

This is part (the best part) of how I spent Mother's Day...

Hubby was away at a poker weekend with the guys, so Son and I went to Case Woodlot, a great area in Aurora - acres of woods, crisscrossed with paths and trails. We spent about an hour and a half, trekking around. We found trilliums:

and others celebrating Mother's Day:

Mother Goose was none too happy to see us. We started walking a little close, to get a picture of the goslings, and the above happened. While you can see her running towards us, what you don't see is the speed at which she was running! We backed off, and crossed the street to give her a wide berth, before resuming our hike.
All in all, a great start to the day. The rest of the day was spent grocery shopping and doing endless loads of laundry. When Hubby got home, he was probably tempted to nap (poker weekends usually mean little sleep), but I let it be known that sleep was not an option (I hadn't gotten my normal weekend allowance, so why should he??) He cleaned out part of the garage instead. Good choice.
