Good friends, Good times.

We Love Breakfast at Our House...

Texas style french toast and whipped chocolate strawberries. Yummmmm!

Happy Birthday Traci

The girls,



The Guys,


And YES, they are watching footage on their smartphones.

Fun night for all. Dinner at Cafe El Cholo is always a great choice.

Family time...Neil's birthday

We had another fun day with the Vargas family celebrating Neil’s big FIVE OH!
Of course my favorite place to be is always in Grandma’s backyard, shooting pics of the kids.
Spinning….


Spinning……









Dizzy!Dizzy! Dizzy!







Good friends George and Pat’s little guy.



The sibs… Kevin, Renee, Neil and Camile.



My lovely sister-in-law and her mom.




Oh ya, the goods.


I’m not sure what is sweeter, the desserts or the toast that Kristie gave. If you don’t already know, Neil used to be a missionary on the Mercy Ships. He traveled all over the world. Kristie said that she’ll always be grateful for the day that Neil gave up the seven seas to sail away with her (hence the theme). Ahhhhhhhhh.



Aunt Lavi and cousin David. We were so glad she was well enough to come.

Birthday blessings

What an amazing birthday.  It started with a fabulous day with my family. I received the royal treatment all day.  My sister – in – law picked up Gavin and stowed him away for a sleep over while my wonderful husband whisked me away to a romantic dinner at The Delphine in Hollywood.

Salmon in crem’ for me.

Short rib and garlic mashed potatoes for him.

The across the street we went to the Pantages to see “Wicked”.

AMAZING!!!!

The next night, we met up with Kevin’s family and celebrated at Islands.

My boy and cousin Bradley

And even more celebrations. Some of my girlies took me to Cha Chas in downtown Brea for a fun girls night out.

Birthday Flan J

Talk about feeling special. I am so blessed to have so many people who care about me. I love every single one of you. Another year has taught me that every relationship is special and valuable and that life is too short to get caught up in petty things. Give love. Expect nothing in return.
