(me, Mom, sister Renee, niece Lawyer Lauren…hey Lauren!)
We don’t often get together and take pics, but it seems appropriate every Mother’s Day to capture this special day with Mom and get all 3 generations of us girls in the picture. We had a wonderful sunny, although windy, day at my sister’s house where she put out a wonderful spread for the whole family. Her husband’s mom and dad, as well as his brother and sister-in-law and assorted young adult kids were all there and we had a great time out on the deck catching up and yakking.
The food was delicious as usual. My sister really knows how to put it together and we had steak and chicken kabobs, green beans, potatoes, salad, bread and my yummy coconut cake, which was a big hit.
These were as good as they look.
I forgot how delicious kabobs are and it’s been awhile since I’ve made them at home.
We filled up the deck and enjoyed our day.

Thanks for all the wonderful comments about the patio project. I’m so glad some of you got inspired to try something like that yourself. It really is a very easy DIY project, so I hope you will try it and let me know if you do.
Enjoy your week!
Don't Miss a Post, join my list!
Great family picture! The food looks delicious. I too love the painted deck.

Rhoda, How do you all stay so slim eating such delicious food??
Your sisters yard is gorgeous and what a sweet doggie!
Great pic of y’all and be sure you post a before and after pic of Mom’s bath. Great choices! Mary
Your whole family is just beautiful! How wonderful to have such a fun filled day with the people you love, and the food! WOW! Wish I could take a nibble, my tummy is growling now…
Bless you!

Hey Rhoda~
Lovely picture of your mom with her girls.
I always love seeing your sis’ backyard. It’s one of my favorites.

What a lovely photo of the “three generations”—how precious. The food looked so yummy. We had cold weather and lots of wind (Missouri), but no rain. It was a perfect day, anyway, as I was with my family, too. Thanks for your great photos.
Rhoda, I would love the recipe {or what you can remember of it} of the kabobs!! They look delicious and I’ve never gotten brave enough to try~although, it should be easy 🙂
Gorgeous girls you all are!
What a wonderful Mother’s Day you had – and the food!!
Yuuuuuuuuuuuumy!
Your sister’s yard is beautiful – and the doggie is a love. Thank you for sharing your sweet family with us Rhoda. Miss you!

Rhoda,
I’m so sorry! It was Judy at Gracious Southern Living! I corrected it. Forgive me? I seem to ask that of you a lot, don’t I?
Thank you for your sweet words about the farmhouse. I’m really fretting over it, much more than an normal person should. I eat sleep and drink that house. Anyway, thank you 🙂
hugs,
