Happy Birthday Mom!!

Today is my mom's birthday!!
She's 35 today!! :)

These are some random things I love about my mom:

She is good at fixing things and making things and she is so creative!

This is the tattoo she got in Mexico. Mike is my dad.

She comes from a long line of beautiful women, and I think us girls carry that on as well. ;)

She is an incredible cook! I learned a lot of what I know about cooking from her.

She and my dad have created a wonderful family that I am so proud to be a part of.

She knows how to have a good time, and is gorgeous during any time period. ;)

This is an inside joke... Some of my fondest memories of living at home were hanging out with my mom and my sisters in the kitchen, laughing sometimes until the wee hours of the morning.

This was when my mom was the school hottie in high school. Ow Ow!

She is a wonderful example of what a wife should be and I try to be as good of a wife to my husband as she is to my dad.

She is the best Nana that my nephews could ask for. I know that when I have children, I'll be calling her all the time for advice and reassurance. She's great with kids and knows how to diagnose and cure lots of ailments.

I'm so glad that she is my mom. I don't know what I would have done without her in my life. I am who I am because of my mom.


PS - The tattoo was a fake. :)
