Today is my mom's 50th birthday. Steve, Dottie, and I are going to the valley this weekend to spend time with her. Tomorrow we are taking her to dinner at La Playa, one of her favorite restaurants. She is handling it fairly well. She tried to get out of celebrating once by saying "If 30 is the new 20 and 40 is the new 30, then 50 is the new 40 and we have nothing to celebrate". She still has the moves so I think she is gonna be fine. :)

I am super excited about getting some good Mexican food. I have yet to find a place here in Austin that I like as much as I like the restaurants back home. If they aren't homemade and 12 inches in diameter then they just aren't worth it!!!
Happy Friday!
