Mother’s Day Lunch

I sent the Irishman an e-mail last week about a Mother’s Day special at one of our favorite local places. They were offering a special surf and turf for under $15 and I thought it sounded good. My husband didn’t take it seriously. I didn’t think that was what I was asking for for Mother’s Day.

Did I mention that we were at lunch during the end of the soccer season? As in I asked my husband to take me to a sports bar for the last game of the soccer season to eat steak and lobster. He was thrilled! The games were really exciting…so much so that he screamed out, “YES!” when Man City won their game and the entire restaurant stared at him. Classic!

In all honesty though I loved it! The food was excellent and the company was even better. These are all phone pictures so they are not the best quality, but I love the joy in the kids’ faces even if the photos are a little blurry!

Before kids the Irishman would sometimes snap pictures of a special meal to show his dad. After kids he is still taking pictures of us plate, but now it has a rogue chicken strip added in.

Sean was desperate for some lobster tail. His father was proud of that!

Caitlin offered to drive home for us, but I didn’t take her up on the offer…yet!

(I am sure my grandmother is reading this shocked because we went to her house for dinner that afternoon. Sean has been in a growth spurt. I have been hungry for the last two weeks. We went to lunch early and still got to enjoy dinner with the family – it was a perfect Mother’s Day!)
