Celebration #1: Mr. JL planned a family gathering at our home. Both of our families were there and it meant the world to me to have them all there. Even my grandma came, she doesn't like to drive anywhere that is too far for her because she gets scared she will get lost. She lives about 40 minutes away from me. So having her there, was awesome!!! Anyhow-the hubs did a great job of getting everyone there and preparing it all by himself. He decorated our entire backyard ALL by himself...he is the BEST!! I didn't get to take a picture of the before bc by the time the night unfolded, the kids kept messing with all the decoration so the pictures do not any justice to his hard work.
Three generations. My mom. Grandma. me.
The JL Family. Thank you honey! I love you soooo much!!!
28 candles.
Me & the kids...missing a couple of them in there.
My mommy, little brother, Johnny and me Celebration #2: My Step father & I share a birthday. So....my mommy wanted to have a double date with us. No kids! lol. It was nice because we never get to go out alone. I love the kids but it's nice to have alone time with my parents and my husband. My mom wanted to go to Benihana, it is a Japanese restaurant and it is very yummy. We decided to go to the one near the beach and we picked a table with a view. It was definitely great times!

Mr. & Mrs. JL
Our chef. If you have never heard of this place before...the chef prepares your order right in front of you. At times, they will also do little tricks here and there for you. It's very entertaining and educational. I learned how to make some yummy food from there and I hope to try it out soon.
Us four and our Chef behind us.
My birthday dessert from Benihana. By the way....FYI...if you have a Benihana or Samurai near you, you can sign up to their birthday club and they will email you $30 gift card for your birthday to spend with them. My mom signed me up so I took full advantage. My meal was FREE!!!
us 4 again..
me and my dessert.
My special second dad, he means the world to me. I am truly blessed to have him in my life! I don't feel as though he is my STEP father but as if he is my other dad. He has always treated me as his daughter and I love him sooo much! I couldn't have shared my birthday with a more amazing person!
The beautiful flowers my hubby got with our Benihana picture on our dining table.

My sister in law surprised me by coming over with the family & singing me happy birthday. She made me an awesome dessert, home made by her! And my nephews & niece bought it personally to me. It was such a special sweet moment.
Aren't they the cutest ever?!?!
Of course....One proud Titi Joey. That's what they call me.
Celebration #4: On Thursday, November 19th, we had bought tickets to Carlos Mencia. He is a hilarious comedian! AND...New Moon officially came out at midnight. Those were our plans with my long time friends Jessica & Oscar. I have been friends/ketchup sisters with her since I was 3 years old. 25 years of friendship!!!! We celebrated their 5th Wedding anniversary & Oscar and I both also share a birthday (well kinds off by a day) so we celebrated that as well. It was a GREAT night!!! We had dinner at Renegade at The Hard Rock, it was delicious! The show was hilarious! The movie was amazing!!!
Us four having dinner..
The hubs & I at the Show. We had floor seats..we were soooo close. Did I mention that I came out of there with my cheeks hurting so much from laughing THE ENTIRE time?!?! It was awesome!
Jess & I about to see New Moon. Our husbands were getting us popcorn while we saved our seats. It was filled to the max. but it was so worth it! It topped off our night. I couldn't have asked for a better night!
