Today is my mom’s birthday! Happy birthday, Mom! ❤️
Let me share a few pictures from Mom’s birthday party! 📸
We celebrated at my place this time, and it was actually my suggestion. Everyone travelled 200 km one way to be here, which makes the day feel even more special. It’s not every day that you get the whole family together like this!
I wanted to surprise Mom with something a little different, so I arranged a guided tour of Cesvaine Palace. Mom is really into history, so I thought it would be something she would enjoy. And I had one more surprise up my sleeve — her friend came to celebrate with us, too! She certainly wasn’t expecting that. 😊
It was such a lovely day, with family, surprises, and a little bit of history thrown in.

P.S. Mom isn’t really a fan of being photographed, so getting pictures of her is a bit of a challenge. Luckily, she was OK with a group photo! ❤️

So sweet, happy birthday to your mom, Ilze! Lovely family photos, treasures. The cake looks so delicious! My mother was also not a fan of having her photo taken.
Thank you, John! Haha, seems like our moms have that in common! I’m glad I managed to get at least a few pictures.
Happy Birthday to your Mum, it was mine yesterday. So lovely to have had the family with you for the birthday celebrations. The table setting looks fantastic.
Thank you! And happy belated birthday to you, too! It was lovely to have everyone together, even if they had quite a long drive to get here!
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Prieks kad tavai mammai bija tik jauka dzimsanas diena. Tu esi tiesam svetita are tik lielu un skaistu gimeni.
Paldies, Rasma! Jā, man tiešām ir paveicies ar tik lielu ģimeni! Bija ļoti jauki visiem satikties un kopā nosvinēt mammas dzimšanas dienu.
What a happy event! And a great blessing to have the generations celebrating together in one place <3
Thank you! It really is special to get everyone together, especially when we all live so far apart!
Happy birthday to your mom. She must have been happy to have such a fuss made over her.
Thank you! I hope she enjoyed it! I wanted to make the day a little extra special for her, especially with the palace tour and her friend’s surprise visit.
Daudz baltu dieniņu mammai! Loti skaista galds un kuka!
