Mothers Day!

Usually for Mothers Day, we do something like go out to eat, which is all fine and good, but this year we did something much more suited to Mom and her personal tastes. This year, we set up a picnic at Abalone Cove state park, up on the cliffs of Palos Verdes. It was Kelli's idea, especially to set it up using her antique China. Mom just loved it!

Setting up with Kelli.

After Lunch, it was time to hike down the cliff to the beach where we occupied ourselves for an hour with a game of rock throwing. Yes. Someone would pick a target and we would see who could get closest to it. Sort of like rock bocce. :)

I'm dangerous when throwing anything, so eventually I just picked up the camera and enjoyed myself documenting instead of nearly hitting my mother with several rocks. That would not have been a very nice Mother's Day gift!

Such a beautiful day, and a wonderful time had by all of our family. :) Happy Mother's Day to all you moms out there. Thanks for all you do for your families and those around you!
