Happy Birthday Mom and Joe (and Shyla, again!)

It's that time of year again! Every year during this weekend we go to Los Banos to celebrate the "February birthdays". There are usually 3 birthdays to celebrate and they are all on February 5th (different years of course). My mom, the husband of my parents best friends, and Sunny a dear family friend who turned 104 last February. This year though Sunny was not there to celebrate. She passed away in July of 2009. I miss her a lot! But it was her time to go. There were 11 of us there. My grandma makes the best yummy, moist cakes. She typically makes 2 of them. This year, since Sunny wasn't able to be with us, my grandma wanted to make a cake for Shyla's birthday. Any reason for a celebration! Shyla loved having us sing to her. It's the little things in life!
