My mother and I are very close, we’ve always been that way and a few years ago she moved in with my husband and me. I was so happy to meet this multi-generational family, who like myself, all live together happily. The little boy has doting [and might I add gorgeous] parents and grandparents and I got to spend the morning with them photographing them in and around Venice Beach.
OK, so I think I might have mentioned before that I’m not hugely into sports, but there are two sports that I grew up watching and enjoying: 1) tennis, and 2) soccer. As soon as I learned that the husband is a Kiwi we hit it off quickly talking about New Zealand’s surprising World Cup performance. Anyone who knows me well will tell you that me talking sports is highly unusual, but the same rules don’t apply during World Cup season. In fact, last time I was crushed by France’s defeat in the final and can still see Zidane’s headbutt like it was yesterday.
Turns out the mom is an actress but is also the Mom/Cook and owner of Babys Belly Food, a Los Angeles based business that prepares and delivers yummy and fresh baby and toddler food, and their adorable 2 1/2 year old son is the taste tester. Hubby too is a thespian, he looked familiar, so I told him I would “imdb” him. For those not in LA, that’s when you look up someone’s filmography online. Yeah… only in LA baby! Turns out there’s a reason his face was so familiar as he has been popping up all over the tube. But, this family didn’t have a hint of Hollywood attitude. They were fun, open and easy going…
BTW – Since moving to LA have been watching one other sport: basketball… who wouldn’t watch the Lakers if they were your home team? I’m only human.
