Mother's Day Celebrating Daughters that are mothers



 As a mother remembering past mother's day celebrations when my two daughters were young

 


 


 

 I become very grateful to be able to see my daughters raising their own families. 

This year both girls had fun with their families celebrating Mother's Day.

Mother's Day 2026 Celebrating with My BFF

 


We spent Mother's day together with my best friend Mary and her husband David. 

 


 

 We've been bff's since the 3rd grade.  We dined on take out from the famous mexican restaurant El Tepeyac in East Los Angeles.

 



 Mary lived on Evergreen Avenue very close to El Tepeyac. We knew the owner Manuel. They are famous for their "Manuel Special" burrito and the smaller version "The Hollenbeck".   

 




 

 David had bought 3 Hollenbecks and 1 machaca burrito. They made special salsa, sour cream, guacamole, chips and a salad. 

 





 

 

We feasted on the food which reminded us of the tastes of our childhood.  

 










Always so nice to be with dear old friends. 



 
Mary and Barb best friends forever. This was taken at Malabar Elementary. I think this was 5th or 6th grade.

Not Just About A Book Club Birthday Brunch With Book Discussions

 



Today we celebrated Donna's birthday

 



 and Maria belated birthday. 

 



 




















 


 We did not have an assigned book to read but rather brought reviews and discussions of the latest books we've read on our own.

 


 



 



 















































  It was a wonderful meeting filled with enthusiastic discussions. We left feeling like there are always so many interesting books to read. A wonderful day with great friends. 

Thank you Lynda for hosting.
