A Mom, A Birthday and some Elephant Seals.

Some people will tell you their mom is more like a friend than a mom. I will tell you my mom is exactly what a mom should be, including a best friend. She is loving, caring, supportive, kind, generous, hopeful, funny, silly, patient and just rad. Every second I get to see or talk to her just reaffirms that she is the best. I am so blessed to have such an amazing woman in my life!

So, last Thursday was her birthday and I was the lucky girl that got to hang out with her for a few days while she was in town. So what did we do? Mini road trip!

Wednesday morning she flew in and I ran to the airport with excitement to pick her up for our little mini vacation. After a few stops around town and lunch with one of my brothers we were on the road to Pismo Beach! We spent the weekend exploring the coast and eating tons of sugar. There were Monarch butterflies, salt water taffy, Elephant Seals, Pie, the movies, and a night time farmers market in San Luis Obispo. Yeah, it was pretty awesome.

I do have to admit something ,blog readers, my mom and I saw the most chicky chick flick of them all (at least of the ones that are in theaters right now). We went to see: Leap Year. I am going to say this one time. The absolute hopeless romantic in me adored this film. I wasn’t looking for an academy award winning movie or anything. Just a sweet romantic comedy. This movie, set in Ireland, hit the spot. I know, I know, super cheesy and girly. Sometimes you need a dose of super sweet and very out there love stories. I am a wedding photographer after all. Maybe I need to watch some Rambo to balance it all out.

Anyways! I would be lying if I told you I was great at actuallly taking vacation photos. I tend to want to just soak everything in when I have the chance. Although I always have a camera with me, I often forget to bust it out when I am with friends and family. I am notorious for grabbing lil’ snaps on my iphone though. So here is our trip in photos. A mix of digital camera point n shoot and iphone glory.
