Mother's Day cruise.

One of our Mother's Day activities this year included a 1.5 hour boat cruise on Canyon Lake, located within the Superstition Mountains. This area is about an hour northeast of where we live.

We rode on the double-decker Dolly Steamboat and enjoyed perfect weather (80s) and sunny skies.

Me and my two special angels. 

If you look closely, you can see a desert bighorn sheep taking a drink from the lake. 

Looking closely again, there are a couple of bighorn sheep here as well as several saguaro cacti.

Such different landscape here than we'd see if we were cruising on a lake in the Midwest!

You can't tell from the above pictures, but the lake was actually quite crowded on Mother's Day with lots of boats (skiing/tubing) and jet skis, etc.
