This past weekend I flew home to Cerritos to surprise my mom for her 60th birthday.  On Friday, Brother picked me up from the airport, took me out for dinner and drinks, and then surprised (and woke up) my mom at about 11:00 pm.

On Saturday, we went to the Cerritos Library to check out the ballroom on the top floor.  It’s the site of Brother and Joy’s wedding reception and I got to see the dinosaur in the Children’s section.

Afterwards we went to Costco to buy some really fancy disposable plates and utensils for the reception.  Later that evening we had dinner with Marie and the rest of the family.

Overall, it was a fun and relaxing weekend with the family.  I had a little cold so it was nice to be able to sleep in and not have to worry about walking the dog.
