Mother's Day 2011

This Mother's Day, the Minnesota Robbs headed to Naples to visit Grandma Sue and Grandpa Kevin. Ashley, Ryan and Kendall went out East to celebrate Confirmation with the New Jersey Langenbrunners. Both Ashley and I enjoyed our special day with our daughters and were royally spoiled by our husbands. A change of scenery (and some Vitamin D) was just what we needed.

While in Florida, Serena became quite accustomed to the water (finally!). We spent lots of time in the pool spinning in circles singing a Johnson Family Favorite:

"Motorboat, Motorboat go so slow ...
Motorboat, Motorboat step on the gas ...
Motorboat, Motorboat GO SO FAST!
"

On Mother's Day, Serena, Susan and I enjoyed Dunkin' Donuts for breakfast (Me: Boston
Kreme and a French Cruller / Serena: Four Munchkins with rainbow colored jimmies). We relaxed all day and enjoyed an amazing lobster feast for dinner. The next day, we went to the beach where Grandma and Grandpa provided Serena with her very own sun tent complete with Sesame Street beach toys.

MOST MEMORABLE MOMENT: After we set up our beach cabana, Serena got settled in with her toys. Just as she was about to dig into the ground with her shovel, she looked at me with a giant smile and exclaimed: "SNOW!" At that very same moment, she realized that what she held in her hands was not melting and that the "snow" was actually white sand.
