Day 131 - May 11, 2010

And we're back to the flowers! Yesterday at Zumba class, our instructor gave out roses to us ladies in honor of Mother's Day. So yeah, I'm not really a mom, unless you count my Daisy Doo and my bunsters as my kids, but it was still a nice gesture. Today, after the rose opened a bit, I snapped this picture, because as those of you following along know that I love taking pictures of flowers! I am just excited to be getting into flower season! The roses should be out soon at Elizabeth Park, and then look out readers, flowers galore! Anyways, for those of you who are local - I'll be doing a photo walk at Elizabeth Park on June 5th at 11:30 - you are all invited to come join me if you'd like!

Until Tomorrow,

Day 129 - May 9, 2010

Today was a twofer holiday - it was both Mother's Day, and Angela's birthday! It was funny because all week they were arguing about who's holiday should trump the others. In the end though, I think we were able to celebrate both equally! We took Ang out to lunch to Illiano's - this pretty awesome Italian restaurant - for lunch. We got back, hung out as a family and played games, and then when Denise and Brandon arrived with the cake - we sang happy birthday! The cake was funny, apparently Denise frosted it too soon out of the oven, and by the time she got to my parents house, the cake had split in half and it looked like the Grand Canyon. Doesn't matter though, it tasted great!

Until Tomorrow,

Athina
