my mom is 50, and beautiful:

My mom's 50th birthday wish,
her big dream,
her hope:
was to get disneyland passes
for the WHOLE FAMILY!

she wore this button proudly, all day
Leith
Jay needed a hat so he didn't get sunburned
my dad thought 15 year olds still liked high school musical 2
we went on the orange swings and loved our lives
my lovely sister, heather!
THE BOYS.
my dad surprised us all by getting himself a dirt&worms cup that probably cost $7. this was the best news to me, because i never knew that dirt&worms cups were even SOLD here, but its almost inconsequential because i'm lactose intolerant and feel like i'm about to puke if i eat ice cream.
while my dad was magically getting dirt&worms, we were getting FREE TORTILLAS FROM THE TORTILLA FACTORY! except, they were corn instead of flour, so we made masks instead of eating them:
i love this ride, always and forever
this is a purse that my brother jason brought me from India.can you believe she's fifty?
a few shots from the time of day that i just love,
the family, minus Carson, who had to work!
happy birthday mama!!!

i didnt know you were lactose intolerant.
what about all those times i ate ice cream at your house...dang.

we should go to dland together because i love you and miss you.

or we should do something else.

like, go to the hollywood bowl on a double when daniel (...my boyfriend...) moves back from tennessee after he graduates!!

but lets do something before that too.
