Surprise Mother's Day visit

I had a low-key Mother's Day. Shane, Ander and I were all sick with colds, so Shane and I traded off the morning watching Ander while the other one napped.

We met up with Jeanette who treated us for lunch at ZTejas on Mill Avenue in Tempe. After hand-made guacamole, hefewiezen, iced tea and Mexican food, we rolled back home. The boys went down for a nap and I headed to Walmart to collect a gift card mom had sent me and a little shopping.

Then I got a call from my cousin Rick, from Escondido. He was in town and wanted to know if we were up for a visit. Always! He came on by and we had a real nice talk while Ander was asleep, which was good because it was hard to have one afterward with Ander demanding attention from "Rik! Rik!" They played cars and ball and had a nice talk themselves.

Here are the two pals ... I should be in this photo...
