Feeling Lucky

A couple of days ago I loaded up the kids and took them out to Franklin, TN to spend the afternoon with my mom and dad. Usually, I drop them off and go run errands because that's the only way I can get things accomplished during the week, but with no errands needing to be done, I just got to spend the afternoon with them.

Having ripe bananas that needed to be used, we decided to get baking. While in the kitchen with my mom and Jojo, I started having these overwhelming feelings of just feeling really lucky - I have such a beautiful family. I can honestly say that my mom and I are best-friends. She is the most amazing woman and one of the most important people in my life. I love her more than words can describe and I can't imagine her not being in my life or my children's lives.

Ok tearing up here... tired of banana bread, we opted to make a banana cake with cream cheese frosting. Oh man, it was soooooo good. I almost wish we hadn't made it because I have been walking by it the last couple days and taking forks full here and there. I almost want to pull and Miranda and pour soap all over it and toss it in the trash can...

This is totally me, ya'all:


 

Have a fantabulous weekend!
