Mother's Day



David asked me what I wanted to do for Mother's day and I had been thinking how nice it would be to go to brunch, so brunch it was. I checked around and the best place sounded like Illinois State Beach Resort. David's mom had been there before and said it was a nice place overlooking Lake Michigan.

The night before we went to a concert for Tantric, one of our favorite bands. I was able to win tickets on 95.1 WIIL ROCK radio so it was nice to not pay for concert tickets. We ended up having a Very late night, not getting home until 2:30 so getting up early was a little difficult.

We picked up David's mom on the way and headed for the resort. We got there a little early so Jenna and I enjoyed the view of the beach and the lake until our table was ready. We were luck enough to have a great big table all to ourselves and we were greated by the hostess with a red rose.

What a great spread they had, fruits, desert, carving station and even shrimp and oysters (yuck). We pigged out on everything, it was so yummy. I think Jenna ate a couple pounds of strawberries all by herself.

I don't think I could of asked for a better Mother's Day, well except for having Kayla and Becca at brunch with us.

Wow...it looks like you had a beautiful Mother's Day...Tony and I had looked into a Wedding at the resort but it's just too ridiculously priced...but it had a beautiful view. :)
