So my mom's birthday party went out without a hitch last weekend. I got her a calendar will all our pics on it, which she loved. I'm also hoping to kidnap her this weekend and take her to AC. Gotta get some gambling in before she leaves for Spain again. Yes, I've been complaining about having her around, but now that she's almost gone, I'm starting to miss her already.

Doesn't she look great for 61? (Shhh, don't tell her I told you...)



And, of course, the kids gotta do their hammy picture thing.

The devilish David:



And the clever Claudia:



Hey, if I win at AC tomorrow, I'll make sure to take a picture of me screaming as they hand me the million-dollar check. Hey, a girl can dream ...

Ok what is AC?

What ever it is... hope you and your mom have fun.

Happy Birthday to your mom... she looks great! I would never have guessed she was 61.
Wait a minute... that means that you are... still a young'n. LOL

Enjoy your mom's remaining time here.
When are leaving for your trip?

Grey, that makes me 18. My mom was very old when she had me. LOL.

AC is Atlantic City -- it's a gambling town in southern New Jersey. I love casinos, but alas, we didn't win anything. We didn't lose much either, so it's ok. Bummer, though. :-)

Thirthe -- gracias! Le pasare las felicitaciones a mama. Y la tarta la comio la abuela y los nietos, si, pero tambien los hijos. pero no yo. Ha ha. :-)

Don't forget, you promised we could stay at the Ritz in London if you win the million! You may not remember, but you did promise...really.

Girl, if I'd won the million, we'd most certainly stay at the Ritz. AND we'd each get our own room. And we'd totally fly first class and get chauffered while we're there. That's just the way I roll.

Sadly, I didn't win the million, or anything actually, so we're out of luck. :-(
