We started the weekend off with a trip to Yakima to spend time with my family celebrating both my mom's birthday (May 6) and Mother's Day with both my mom and grandma.
One of the highlights of our weekend was seeing the shock and surprise on my mom's face when she unwrapped the itinerary I made her to let her know what her gift from Corey, my dad and I was - a trip for her and I to Palm Springs, planned for next weekend! It'll be a great mother / daughter trip where we'll be able to spend time together shopping, enjoying the sun, doing a little gambling, etc. In addition, we enjoyed dinner at El Porton, sipping Starbucks drinks in the sun, and playing fetch with Roxy in my parent's backyard.
We made it back to Seattle this afternoon in time to celebrate with Joan with a homemade dinner at our place. After steak, grilled veggies and rice, we completed dinner with champagne cupcakes with champagne buttercream frosting. Good food and great company - couldn't have had a better ending to our Mother's Day weekend.
Thanks to our moms (and grandmas!) for being such great role models and for always being there for us. We love you!
Surprise! I'm so looking forward to our girls' weekend in Palm Springs!
Happy birthday, Mom!
Goofin' around...that's what too much sugar will do to you.
Random peacock chillin' at my grandma's neighbor's house...only in Yakima!
No trip to Yakima is complete without a few rounds of fetch.
Champagne cupcakes - yum!
