To celebrate my mom's big day, the family met up for brunch in D.C. My parents are not movers and shakers by any means, (the won't visit me in Virginia, because every time they see the Pentagon they think they are lost.) so coming downtown was a big deal! Michael couldn't make it, because is was working in Johannesburg (rough life), but my sister's bf, Zach, his sister and her fiance joined the party.
Despite the restaurants instance on playing techno music at high decibels on a Sunday morning, we had a great time. Rachel and Drew had their first exposure to my family, namely my mother who is always an experience. She was able to relate Drew telling her how he grew up on a farm, to the time she called one of her students with a lot of hair, a hair farmer, and after that student got a haircut, he told my mother he got it harvested. If that doesn't make sense to you, don't worry. Not a lot of her stories do.
Happy Mother's Day!
