 Celebrated my Mom and Dad's 50th wedding anniversary on May 12th! 50 years!! So happy for them. So thrilled my Dad is feeling and looking so well for 
this special occasion.

The whole family went out to a great dinner with them to celebrate at
Seasons 52.... delish!

The next day was Mother's Day. JM's mom was here for the weekend with us. JM's Pop is in Europe at the moment. We hosted a late lunch for all the moms in the family. I cooked as well as my sis. Mo came through with another amazing raw dessert!. These are the gifts Gabriella and I made for all 5 grandmas. 

Mother's Day Fabric Corsages



Didn't take a shot of the food but Yum it was. Here is Mo's raw/vegan chocolate moose cake with a raw almond crust and chocolate raspberry sauce. She never disappoints.


 Little grandma enjoying.

 Nice corsage
 Very happy about her moose

 I found this little onesie at Children's Orchard for $1.99. Had to buy it. My brother is such a rocker, great guitar player, artist, photographer and crazy uncle. He loved Ansel's threads.

 With Auntie Momo

 Our neighbor Nancy took this so we all could be in the shot.

Ansel is loving his meal times...we knew he would.

"Loving My Sweet Potatoes Mama!"


So, last month my brother did a photo shoot of Ansel and the 2 older kids.  Ansel was a peach...taking a shot of all three of them...now that was a feat! Some shots are hilarious. I had to post some.








"Ok, are you ready to sit still Jude... Gabriella, ready to hold Ansel....ok, smile guys.. smile for uncle Ronnie...Jude, look here, Ansi, Ansi...Gabriella cross your legs...."



  

Let's try the couch

Yeah! We got one! 

He looks like Papa.




 This is the best shot with Gma and Gpa....the kids had had it. :)

Our Anniversary sort of flew by...This weekend JM is taking me out to my fav restaurant Real Food Daily to celebrate....but first, tomorrow night he's taking me out to buy a new dress for the occasion. :)
