Mother's Day Outing...

Happy Mother's Day to every mother out there.
I had a wonderful weekend. Hubby took me to Granbury, Texas for an all day, 9:30am to 6:00pm, shopping day Saturday. I did a lot of shopping and he did a lot of sitting on benches and reading, but the nice thing was he told me to take my time and shop as long as I wanted to. He kept saying, "It's your weekend."

We started the day with coffee at The Nutshell Eatery & Bakery. This happy little sign greeted us on our table. 
 I love the unique shops around the square. They are all housed in old, historical buildings.
I can truly say we "shopped 'til we dropped."  
Today we drove around Granbury and around the lake. I snapped some pictures of these very interesting insects roaming around in the pastures.


 Now this one was really creepy
and this one I'll let y'all guess at, lol. That's pretty gross. I can't imagine why someone would think to make him.
Next we drove through the Acton Cemetery where Davy Crockett's wife is buried.

As we were leaving I saw this unusual tombstone. I would be curious to know how much it cost. It was huge, but really cool.
These ducks seemed to be enjoying mother's day too as they relaxed on the dock and
here were some very photogenic deer that were more than happy to pose for a picture.
I hope everyone had a great Mother's Day and hope you are all looking forward to a great week ahead.

  2. Such a great weekend! I love seeing the photo's. That's really something about Davy Crockett's wife's grave. I have to wonder (or should I know) where he is buried.

    I'm so glad you had a good time. ;)
