Ah! That's so thoughtful, Jeanette Isabelle. Thank you, all!
I hope you all had a great day with the special moms in your live too.
It was a great one this year. We spent the weekend at my mom's trailer, which we affectionately call "Camp Nana". There was a lot of work to do, and we got very little of it done, but everyone had a wonderful weekend. The highlight was our Saturday night campfire. It was a super fun family time - and backpackboy and I tried flint and steel for the first time, with some success. We're going again this weekend, and get an extra day this time.
Here's a video of our first flint and steel experience:
Here's the longer video of our campfire experience. I put the video camera away on Saturday night, and just enjoyed the rest of the weekend:
My Mother's Day gift from my kids was a Mora Eldris knife. I tried it out for the first time yesterday and I think I love it.
