Our Mother's Day Weekend was full to the brim of random bits & pieces!
A little background here - Hubby had a German Shorthair when we met. That dog was the true love of his life (I joke - kind of). Unfortunately, Cecil (the dog) passed away before we got married. Hubby really wanted another Shorthair, but by the time we were ready for a new dog (back in 2005) one had just won the Westminster Show and they were way out of our price range! So instead we adopted Bentley from the local pound. 
Back to Sunday - we drove up, picked up Beta and came back home (a trek that took about 5 1/2 hours!).
Once the dogs met Bentley "announced" that he was the boss, Beta ignored him and they've gotten along well enough ever since! Basically, they continue to ignore one another. We're hoping they warm up as time goes on.
Sorry this was so long, I just wanted to share all of our bits and pieces from the weekend!
Friday night BBug just couldn't wait to give me my gifts so we celebrated Mother's Day a little early! These are what the kids made for me at school! I LOVE THEM!!
Saturday morning started off bright and early with Hubby & BBug heading out for a day of fishing with some of our friends. It was BBug's first time on a boat (well, other than a little john boat) and her first real fishing trip. And she had a ball!
They saw fish, starfish, manatee, sea turtles, crabs and more!
The only mishap of the day came when she was trying to get her starfish out of the live well and fell in! Not to worry though, "Uncle" M was there to save her!
While the great outdoorsmen (and girl) were off doing their thing, Buddy Roe and I were having a relaxing day at the house. I tried to do a little photoshoot, but after a couple of shots he just wasn't interested. He said something about it being hot outside - I don't know.
Sunday we headed up to the town I spent my middle- and high-school years in to pick up the newest member of our family...Beta.
Beta belonged to a couple that I went to school with, but they needed to find a new home for him and we were happy to provide that home.

And he is a WONDERFUL part of our family! Couldn't love the dog more!

Like I said, Hubby was so excited to get Beta. He just knew that this was going to be "his" dog. Well, I hate to break it to him but someone else has claimed ownership of this one!
She pretty much follows him wherever he goes! It's love!

I hope all you moms had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend.
