happy mama's day!

(taylor wrote this with papa's help-hah)

mother's day for me was celebrated on saturday...the whole fam woke up early and papa cooked us my favorite big breakfast which consisted of french toast on sweet hawaiian bread, bacon and coffee. and they gave me one my lovely mother's day presents...jino took all my recipes and put them in this awesome recipe book...he found this website online where they print out all the recipes, write a message in it and put it in a cool book...

after breakfast we headed toward the ocean! we strolled along sunset beach even though it was still a bit chilly and cloudy and then had an early lunch at my super favorite place to eat...taco surf...after we headed towards hb's main street for some ice cream and walking around the shops then headed home

where we rested for a little bit before dropping of the girls at lola and lolo's so we could partake in the graduation festivities for my sis-in-law chris who got her MA. started out with some champagne at the house then a trip to north hollywood in the huge hummer limo...where it stopped to drop us off in the noho district right in front of tokyo delves. this place is awesome! it's a japanese restaurant/show. if you haven't been, i highly recommend it! just keep in mind you definitely don't go there for the food or drinks....it's all about the entertainment! we were all dancing, laughing, clapping, shouting and cheering the entire time!

our limo that was way tooooo big....(this is how we partay with the old people-hehe)
the graduate dancing on a chair
the awesome dj/main actor/singer

then sunday, mother's day, we skipped out on our own church and went to jino's parent's church (sigh-haha-jk) to celebrate mother's day there for her. they had a mother's day luncheon.
