Mothers day and my birthday always coincide. It seems like the everlasting celebration!
Too much food, too much cake, too many gifts... hmmmm ... okay scratch that last one.
The celebrating started on Saturday when we met my sister Pam and her husband Steve for dinner after Lukes Volleyball tournament in Redondo Beach.
Then the next day we had the fam over for a Mothers Day BBQ. These pretty tulips are from Steve's mom.
Sweet Caroline! Steve's cousin Marali, her husband Kevin and their baby came too!
As you can see Caroline was starved for attention.
Courtney sending me Mother's day love from Utah!
Me and my posse.
Steve and his mom. I have never seen a photo where these two look more alike! Genes are a powerful thing.
Mi Madre!
Patrick serenading his first little groupie!
More groupies! I think one of them pulled out a lock of his hair.
Mom, Mark, Marali, Kevin
Birthday lunch with my girls Jammie and Janelle.
Yes we ate this. All of it. And it rocked.
After singing myself a rousing rendition of Happy Birthday to me
ending in "I am so awesome" I blew out the candles. I have a tendency to be silly.
And because we still needed to eat more... dinner at Salt creek with the family!
Now the diet begins... on Monday??
This is my Mothers Day/Birthday present from my husband. Awesome... now if I just knew how to use it! And just in case you were wondering....47!

Linda --
I hope you had a wonderful birthday! After all these years, I still remembered it was your birthday the day of the 11th!! ;o)
After all these years I STILL can't remember your bday....even after a granddaughter was born on your bday last year. I promise to be better. : ) You have a fun and cute life and I hope I never forget the comment the rimmmmcaress person made about you comparing swimsuit shopping to hyenas eating you alive. Let the diet begin.
You are one hot 47 year old mama! Happy Belated Mother's and Birthday!!
Happy belated b-day-you're younger than that!! You need to give Luke a kick in the butt for the 12 cents-what a dork!
yay! i am so late, but happy birthday. You're one of my favorite people in all the land (that's sayin' something, i know A LOT of people ;p)
Linda, so nice to hear from you. I love that Marali has some family to live by. Love seeing your family, thought Steve looked a bit like Gary a few times. I do love that sweet Caroline wish she lived closer. You can get to Michelle's blog from mine, she is moving here in a few weeks, can't wait. We haven't lived near each other in 23 years. She wants me to help her with her blog, Jeff posts things for her (of all the people I know she definitely needs to blog). Lots of love to you and your family.
