As the kids get older, Mother's day get's easier for me since the kids are old enough to do some of the planning. Kerry likes things kept simple and as long as she doesn't have to cook she's happy. This meant we started the day with a trip to McDonalds where I picked up breakfast and brought it back. After our special breakfast we headed to Campbell River park for a hike. Surrey has several regional parks that are in the city but definitely feel like they aren't. This one is one of our favourites.
When we got back from the hike we sent Kerry up to her room so that the kids could plan their surprise. They wanted to do an afternoon tea in the gazebo. I helped boil the water for the tea but everything else was them including finger sandwiches, fruit, cheese and crackers and a lovely flower centrepiece from the garden. Kerry was quite surprised at the level of effort they went to. We finished the day off with a trip to white spot. No cooking.
