Hey, Shawty — It’s Your Birthday

December 31st, 2013 by Karen 18 Comments

Whew! Long night…

El Hub and I didn’t get back from the East Bay until almost midnight. We spent some time hanging with my fam to celebrate my mom’s sixty-fifth birthday.

First, noms at a local Japanese restaurant, and then cake, champagne (actually, a peach moscato) and presents back at the house. I got Mom some YSL, Chanel and Dior beauty goodies from Sephora.

Tabs was invited, of course, but he chose to hold down the fort and watch a few more episodes of Breaking Bad instead.

You know cats… 🙂

    Your Mom is a total cutie pie! Mine was a firecracker, and she could be a handful at times, but I still miss her. I love to see how you made her so happy on her birthday- you’re a good daughter!

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my two-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my cat (Tabs).
