Last Saturday in Sonoma, we spent the day relaxing at the spa. Everyone had spa appointments throughout the day and it was so much fun to just relax in the nice spa garden. I had my first professional massage as well. When making all of the arrangements at the spa, no one asked me if our group preferred male vs. female masseuses and I didn't even think about the possibility of a male masseuse, so when a man arrived in the relaxation room and called out "Kristen", I was a little shocked (as you can tell from the picture below)! He was actually very professional and it turned out to be a good massage.
On Sunday, we all packed and then went to brunch for Mother's Day at a great restaurant in downtown Sonoma. We surprised the mother's with tulips which they all enjoyed. It was so much fun to spend time with all of my family and it was sad to go back home...it was a great warm weekend!

Kristen, I love your recipe books and the advice book and invitation you made! You are so creative!
Kristen, it looks as though you did lots of work and had a great time. (Obaa and Ojii)
Your pictures are wonderful. One can tell you were everywhere taking them. Your detail for everything was ausum really. I don't know where you find the time. Thanks for giving Renee a week-end she won't forget.
