Mother's Day (2012)













It was a nice Mother's Day and I made myself a chocolate banana cake to celebrate these day! We didn't do much things today but we went to an Italian restaurant (Olive Garden) for brunch then we did some shopping and Sam...finally got her cell phone updated today!
For dinner we went to a Chinese restaurant about 40 minutes drive from our house and it was good.







A surprised Mother's Day gift from my daughter....feel so warm and happy!


Happy Mother's Day to all the baking moms:))!
