1. Today is Mother's Day, and I am appreciative to be celebrating one of the world's best! Although I am appreciative of my mom each day, I'm especially appreciative of the photo that we were able to take tonight. It is a very rare sight to see the four of us in one photo, let alone all in the same room together. Due to our crazy schedules and my grandma's ailing body, we usually visit her in shifts and are rarely able to all go out to eat together. But, today was special. This photo represents three distinct generations in our family and the beauty of bringing together two totally different cultures in order to create one.
Oh, and side note: My grandmother argued with our Japanese hibachi chef, yelling that he was Korean, although he assured her he was in fact Japanese. She must have liked him if she were trying to claim his as one of her own.
2. I had the honor of going wedding dress shopping today with my friend Alissa. She looked absolutely stunning in her soon-to-be gown, and I can't wait to ring in 2013 with the future Mr. and Mrs. Spiwak!
3. I got to visit my sister in LA today, in which she treated me to a Yogurtland. Then, I came home to McConnell's waiting for me in the freezer. Boy, do I have some amazing people in my life who know me (too) well!
