Mother's Day

Nothing brings me greater joy than being a mom and I love spending Mother's Day with my family.  I don't need gifts...just a day together.  We had a nice breakfast at Richie's and then drove down to Solana Beach to try a new hike.
 The trail is called Annie's Canyon Trail and it was amazing! Views of the beach to the west and views of the lagoon to the east.  Lots of wildflowers everywhere too!

Then we reached the canyon and hiked up to the viewpoint.  We went up both ways...one along a trail
 and the other way up tiny cutouts in the canyon.  Matt and Allison got a little claustrophobic and backed out, but Taylor and I completed the hike up.
 We stopped in caves along the way
 and climbed a narrow ladder to the top.
 The preserve was just so beautiful!
We had a late lunch at the Encinitas Fish Cafe and stopped for donuts at Peterson's to fulfill my craving!
We couldn't resist one final stop at the Lebitski's to see their new puppy, Koby.  They just got him yesterday and he is the sweetest!!

I came home to some great gifts...gift cards, workout clothes, face masks, jewelry holder, kitchen stuff and this very thoughtful homemade "coupon" card from Allison.  I love that her WSB teacher said they weren't too old to make homemade gifts.  I loved it all and the special day!!
