Happy Mother's Day

I hope everyone out there had an enjoyable Mother's Day, because our's was mighty fine indeed. We headed over to Easterly for some BBQ and Lakers game action. Edmund grilled up some bratwurst while the rest of us frolicked in the sun. For Nathan, frolicking in the sun = must wear sun screen.

He didn't mind though because he had a shiny brand new squirt bottle that was loaded and ready to go!! Hmmmmm...who will be his first victim??

Better watch out Lucy!! You're going down.

She didn't mind too much though because it was pretty roasty outside and the mist felt nice and refreshing.

Then Nathan realized Lucy was right. The mist WAS nice and refreshing!! So he decided to start spraying himself, as Noah peered over longing for the cool relief.

Lola was watching the shenanigans from across the picnic table. After rolling her eyes at the silly boys, she looked over at me to pose for a picture with her favorite child...Chasey-poo.

A short while later, on the other side of town, Mom paused for a pic with her favorite Grandpuppy. Say cheese Lucy.

Then, the Dog Whisperer Darren tamed all the wild puppies just in time to watch the spellbinding movie Hotel for Dogs. (Yes...we really watched that.)

The highlight of the day was my Raspberry Tiramisu, yum-o!!

I found this recipe in Giada's Family Dinners by Giada de Laurentiis. It was very delicious and quite easy to make. Thank you Giada for contributing to our Mother's Day celebration. May I one day absorb all your culinary know how, and look as classy and busty as you in your elegant Anthropologie attire. Cheers to all the mamas!!
