Mother's Day 2012

Mother's Day ended up being perfect. We drove to Corona to meet my in-laws for breakfast at Mimi's Cafe. We enjoyed a yummy meal with great conversation.  Mom P truly treats me like a daughter and I am lucky to have her as a mother in law. Not to mention she did a pretty awesome job raising my hubs.

Breakfast at Mimi's

After breakfast we drove to Annette and Steven's house for a Mother's day bbq. I had so much fun with all my cousins and Aunties. We made bath salts and wrote cool notes to our mama's. I love writing my mom notes because she always gets emotional. I was surprised that Dennis made me one from Micki...I loved it! Although I hated his drawing...in fact I was making fun of it before I knew it was me...hahaha. We missed Kitty but she threw out her back and was not able to make it. I cant believe next year I will be a mom!

We missed you Vero! 

Wendy's getting married...Girls night!

My cousin Wendy met a very nice man and is now engaged to be married. She had a really rough time after troubles in her previous marriage. Let's just say her ex was not man enough for her! Enter Steve a kind hearted man who loves Marissa and Sebastian and treats Wendy like gold. They recently bought a house together and will marry on December 30th. We are all so happy for them and wish them lots of love and happiness. Today the cousins got together for some girls time with her! We had so much fun laughing and just being silly! I love being around my cousins because they just get me and I get them. We don't have to explain costumes or who anyone is. We all just know! Today was no exception! Gaby brought hilarious "sexy" making us all crack up! What a night! I stayed there since I did not want to drive home late. I slept with Marissabelle and she was just the cutest! Can't wait until the wedding!!

Jesse's girls night

My little cousin Jessica is getting married next month. I felt so bad that I did not attend her bridal shower that I wanted to do something nice to get all the girl cousins together. I made yummy apps and the Gonzalez cousins and my sister came over. We sat around gave her advice about marriage....like..Be honest, Let him be the man, don't try to do everything, don't get worked up over the little things, don't go to bed mad, don't be afraid to ask for help. We all giggled and I guess reflected a little about our own married life. She is only 21 and said she was not scared at all. To make the evening fun I invited Mindi to host a Passion Party for us. She came with a suit case of goodies. We all laughed and turned red on occasion with all the toys, lotions, and vibrating thingy's!

We all had a great night and I was so happy that everyone came over! Congrats Jessie we wish you the best!

Last Game For Me...at USC!

The Big Rivalry game was set for 7pm, so we arrived at about 3:30pm to tailgate our butts off! I knew it would be my last game since next week I would not use my ticket to prepare for my 30th bday. The Marshall Tailgate was a blast, I was finally joined by my buddy Mich and even had unexpected visitors, my cousin Annette and her husband Steven. After rounds of flip cup we went to the game. USC won, but we did miss the dramatic ending where both teams almost brawled after the game! Great day, but I am exhausted!
