Always comes through..

It was a long Easter Day.. 
I had to work today 3-11:30pm.. which was a SLOW day!

BUT, when I got home tonight, I had a little Easter bag waiting for me..
From "truly" my best friend, my mama!!
She never forgets about me, and always know what to do to make me feel special. 
I hope that when I am 40, I am still getting Easter baskets from my mom! 
This is what she got me....
First of all, I have a LOT of favorites (let me just say that right now)
You will find out I favor a LOT of things, and I have a lot of "BEST FRIENDS" (which I never know until I started talking about my friends to other people, I was like "yeah one of my best friends".. and then the next day.. "yeah, one of my best friends".. "no, not the same person from yesterday's story!") I have a LOT of great friends that I consider my best friends! But my mom is not just my mom, she is truly my best friend.. and I am so blessed to have that bond with her. I do cherish it everyday! One good thing about having lots of favorites.. is you always know what to get me when searching for a gift.. The BAD thing about getting me my favorites is that I probably already got them the day before.. just like today! I bought myself my favorite Easter Egg Candy last night and today there was a whole package included in my gift basket from mom... But I will still enjoy both. 
Plus, my moms are cuter.. they are smaller eggs!! 

So.. let me break it down for ya.. 
1. We got peanut butter eggs.. FAVORITE EASTER CANDY EVER!! 
2. Laffy Taffy- gotta LOVE the long ones, and gotta TRY to figure out the jokes! I don't really care for the banana one but they are my mom's favorite so they make me smile and think of her. 
3. Scentsy- a mama that listens, I said I wanted a new one and there it is.. in my Easter bag! 
4. We had a smelling test with about 7 scentsy scents when I was home last weekend! She got me two I would like. 
5. Jolly Rancher CHEWS- I came across these one day with my brother.. I LOVE them! They are the best thing! my bubba bought me some and surprised me with them one night, and now my mama got me FOUR packs! And we are all hooked on them now too!
6. Undercover Angel- Now, when I ask people about this movie.. they say oh yeah! its that guy that is an angel.. NO! WRONG! Its about a little girl, and her dad.. there is no "ANGEL" in it.. it's SO cute, and kinda an older movie! But it was one of those movies my family always loved! And it makes me happy when I watch it! One of my top favorite all time movies, and I have A LOT of favorite movies! I am glad I finally have it in DVD now and not just VHS!
7. Last but not least.. TWO cards! Because me and my mom have this love for cards.. she collects cards, and has an entire drawer in her closet full of cards that haven't been written on. She could open a card store! So, I began loving cards early on. I love to make them as well.. But now, I have a big box full of cards that I like for ALL occasions!! And since me and my mom LOVE cards so much, we almost always get two for every occasion. One that is funny. and one that is serious
So, you get to cry and laugh!!
So, THANK YOU to the greatest, most caring, loving, compassionate mother I have ever known. 
She makes my day.. EVERYDAYI love you mom.. if you are reading this. 



I had my GREAT mom go through ALLLL of our pictures today to find me one of my favorite memories of Easter.. when I was little.. on an Easter Egg Hunt! I love these people in this picture so much! They are my FAMILY! Its crazy to see pictures like this of me and the twins soo long ago and to think... we never knew that we would be ROOMIES today! haha, It makes me feel so THANKFUL that I have such amazing friendships, and that we have that special relationship and I know it will always be there! We are going to be "FAMILY" forever.. I mean, We all have tattoos for each other.. now, that's LOVE! :) I just wanted to share this picture because it takes me back through all those past years, and it's exciting to remember alll the times past! 

Thank you Easter for all the great memories and all the sugar rushes I will be having for next several weeks eating all this candy! 
Most importantly, 
Thank you Lord for giving your son to die for our sins
Thank you Jesus for washing away our sins
Praise the Lord Jesus!! 

I hope everyone had a HOPPY EASTER!!!!! <3

  1. Glad you liked your Easter bag (instead of basket)! Hope you like the scents. You can think of me every time you look at the Banana ropes:) And, I ordered a copy of Undercover Angel for me, too! Sorry about the way I signed your cards; I must have been having a senior moment -- YIKES! I love you and thank God for you every day! I am so thankful for the special mother daughter relationship we enjoy! Not everyone is as blessed! I LOVE YOU -- Mom :))
