On Friday, it was Lori's birthday, so I went straight from Redlands down to my dad's house. Lori wasn't home yet, so my dad suggested we go to K1 Speed, which is a place for indoor go-cart racing. Now, these are not wimpy go-carts that you find at a family fun center. These cars are fast! My dad's wrist was sore, so he took pictures of me racing around the track. There were only two other people in my race, but sadly, I was slower than them. I did, however, improve my best lap time from 29.23 seconds to 27.74 seconds. It may not sound like much of an improvement, but trust me...every millisecond counts! Unfortunately, most of the pictures of me driving ended up being pretty blurry.
Then it was time for the celebration to begin. The whole family went out to dinner (Dad, Lori, Shannon, Tara, Jessica, Ryan, and me), and there was a beautiful view of the ocean from our seat. We went back to the house later for some delicious cupcakes, although sadly Lori couldn't eat them because of the new diet she is on. The night ended with some Frisbee golf on the Wii.
Saturday the other side of my family was celebrating my grandma's, a.k.a Mommu's, 80th birthday. We were at the Chiriboga's house in San Diego, and everyone was there except for Breanne. We ate tons of chips and dip, played Apples to Apples, ate a yummy Mexican dinner, distributed presents, and of course had dessert at the end. I also went in the jacuzzi with my younger cousin Whitney, but for some reason it didn't warm up as much as we would have liked.
Finally, Sunday was of course Mother's Day. This year we went out for brunch at a restaurant in Fallbrook. Everyone enjoyed their meal, and I had cinnamon raisin french toast. How good does that sound? Mmm...
Unfortunately, I don't have any other pictures on my camera other than the racing ones. Maybe I can steal some from other people and get them on here.
Overall, it was a wonderful weekend surrounded by people I love! I couldn't ask for more than that, really.
