50!
Even though she still looks like she is 35, I have to make it publicly known, that my Mom is 50... and only publicly known because... daaaaaaaang, look how good she looks!

her cake says 25 x 2.... that way it wasn't too obvious!
My Mom has to be one of the most giving, thoughtful person you will ever meet.
She works full time, plays full time, and seriously, volunteers full time.
My Mom will bend over backwards to help anyone. She volunteers and usually runs most of the charity committees at her work, all of which she does off the clock... things like Relay for Life, JDRF, Breast Cancer Awareness, Festival of Trees.... just to name a few. These are things she does yearly... all year long.
Growing up, my Mom was always the first one to volunteer to be the "Room Mom" for parties and they always turned out fantastic. I can remember several times where my Mom planned, decorated, and organized random weddings... like people are just drawn to her, they know she has the talent and the eye to make things turn out fabulous and the dedication to make sure its done and its done right!
Her Love Language is definitely gift giving, and most everyone who comes in contact knows this about her. she shows her love for people by gift giving, even just something small.
to say the the least, my Mom is amazing. How did I get so lucky?
pictures of me and my Mama through the years.. oh, and all her hairstyles too! she can pull off any color or cut... its pretty awesome!
but onto the celebrations....
My Dad and Mom celebrated her Birthday (which has been known for years as TammyFest) by going to Pueto Vallerta (?) and staying in an all inclusive resort! Luckys!
They loved it and said they can't wait to go back!
When they got back, we celebrated as a family at California Pizza Kitchen. My Mom was spoiled with lots of presents, some funny, some sentimental, but mostly gifts to uphold her shopping
Scott and I put together these two cute gifts with a gift card included

if you click on the picture on the right, you can better read what it says... one of those cute Candy Bar poems
(thank you pinterest)
My Mom also LOVES cinnamon Jolly Ranchers, so we filled her 50 and Hot jar with Hot Tamales and Fire Jolly Ranchers
After dinner we did a photo shoot... ya know, that's how we roll.
My Mom made Scott feel super loved and everyone else super awkward by annoucing loudly after we left the resterant... I want a picture with Scott!!! ha, poor Stephen...
hence why her face is a little red here...
she sure does love that Husband of mine, and the feeling is mutual, Scott loves my Mom :)
so then, to add to the awkwardness, she grabbed Stephen and we did a Mom - Son in Law picture...
lol - just know, my Mom really does like Stephen. :)
<<<<<< busted!
My cute Parents with all the Birthday loot
I don't think my Dad will ever grow out of Hawaiian Shirts... but that's okay, Hawaii is home to us!
Happy Birthday Mama! Hope it was fabulous!
