Last Saturday I decided to treat Mrs. B to a girls day out. She has been so helpful to me these past several weeks and I wanted to spend some quality time with her to show her my love and appreciation for all her help.
Mrs. B is my Mother, and her name is Blythe. My Mother works for my husband and about a year ago his "all ladies" staff started calling her Mrs B. She likes to be the office care taker aka "Mother Hen" to the ladies in the office and to my husband as well. LOL! It's like she's taking care of her little chicks and making sure everyone is well fed (she cooks lunch somedays, and even brings breakfast to work), feeling ok, needs extra help, run small errands, and basically making sure everyone is happy. My mother has a vivacious firecracker personality and is super bubbly! You cant help but like her once you meet her.
I cant help but giggle everytime I hear someone call her "Mrs. B." I instantly think of Aunt Bee from The Andy Griffith show.
I took Mrs. B to historic Perry for a day of shopping, lunch, and driving around admiring the historic homes.
So beautiful!
We shopped at Carrie Lynn's antiques in Perry.
The owner Cindy Coller is so incredibly nice and welcoming. It made the shopping experience that much more enjoyable.
Such a cute house!
The lovely Mrs. B
I found this darling childs wicker chair that will look pefect in Miss. Vivi's room.
Inside, I spied these too too cute little spaghetti poodle figurines.
After a little shopping we dined at "The Swanson" for lunch.
A darling historic house on the square.
We had a wonderful lunch with plenty of time to catch up and share stories.
It was a lovely Saturday spending quality time with the sweet Mrs. B…..my Mother and friend.
XOXO,
Your mom is so beautiful, what a nice day you two had. I wish my mom lived closer 🙁

Hi Jenn, your mom is lovely! how nice that you were able to spend the day out together. YOu are lucky that she is so nearby. mine is in florida and I’m in NY, so I dont see her very often at all. but I do spend a huge amount of time with my daughters and I hope they never move to far away as I would be lost!

OMGosh!!! My grandmother had poodles just like that when I was growing up…there’s no telling where they have ended up since her death in 2007, makes me sick to think abt. On a happy note though, it looks like you and Mrs. B. had a wonderful time and please thank her for working so hard on pampering us, she deserved a great day spent with her super sweet daughter!!! Can’t wait to get together again!!
It is so wonderful that you and your mom got to spend the day together! I want to do that soon with my mom. She only lives 40 minutes away but we both work all of the time! Your mother is so pretty! I see where you get your looks from! I love the little chair that you got for Vivian and the little poodles look just perfect for you! Come by and visit sometimes!
