Mommy weekend

My mom was here this weekend- YAY!!! Marcee's mom was also here, so it was truly a girls weekend. my mom has been very sick from a very long time with Osteo-Arthritis and the Dr's didn't know what was wrong with her. She eventually got help from a specialist and now she is like anew woman. She could hardly walk and was always off work. So once she got better I wanted her to come visit.

A great time was had by all. We went to the beach, even though the weather wasn't that great, my mom was a real sport and tried Sushi without complaining... Although she did once we went to get Thai food. I have no concept of taking it slow. I just thought that if she was okay with Sushi, she would be okay with Thai food. APPARENTLY NOT!!!

It was great having Ma here in my space. The last time I was living at home I was 18: after high school I went to Varsity, then moved to Cape Town. So in her mind I am still 18 (more like 6), in a far away place (it's a 2 hour flight from Jozi to here), living in a shack (well... It is a bachelor) and I have no friends or family around (Marcee and I have been friends since I was 12, so we are practically family). She saw my 'place' and relaxed a little.

Lots of fun was had and she even went to a spa for the first time. I'm so glad that the older I get, the better my relationship with my mom gets... Come to think of it our relationship was never THAT bad, we were always cool. But now we are TIGHT!!!
Pics from this weekend:


Good times!!

There's no denying that they are related


My mom loves posing... She was too short to be a model.


Guess who had too much wine? Clue: it wasn't me

I couldn't help myself!!

Will put up more soon :)
