Just kidding, she doesn’t really have everything, but where should we go? The tricky part is that it is her birthday on May 6th and Mother’s Day in the UK was about 4 weeks ago. But now she has heard on the T.V and radio about Mother’s Day here and is naturally requesting another one. She is visiting me here from Scotland along with my sister and her 2 1/2 year old son, my nephew Corey. So we have to pick a place or activity that can be done with a small, very cute, but squirmy restless typical boy’s boy who likes mud and dirt. Then of course my sister is a mum as well and if you could fur kids I am one too. So many mums in one place!
A special request has been made for seafood, a big family favorite. I know of a few places in Pasadena where I live, but was looking for some activities that Corey would like and would not make us exhausted! So what opinions do you have for activities?
What about presents? Do I need to get something for both? Can I offer my photographic services or is that an expected item anyway? Would you give the gift of photography?
Leave some comments and help a lassie out!
Here is my mum. Can you see any resemblance?

First off: how about action shots of Corey, all streaked like the lightning he is right now? This stage didn’t last very long for Luca, though I thought it would never end. He’s turned into more of a builder, as you’ve seen.
I was going to suggest a really nice seafood restaurant near Malibu (Gladstones) because they have a sandbox in the middle of the lounge/ waiting area but then I realized that this kind of place on Mother’s Day is going to be a nightmare. There is normally a wait on a non-holiday. How about going on a day other than the actual Mother’s Day? It’s right on the beach and it’s a beautiful place and there is the little play area.. just an idea.
Just treat her to a nice meal. What moms love most is just spending time with their kids…add a little grub and some wine to that and it’s the perfect gift 🙂
