Mother's Day 2009

This year for Mother's Day we had the opportunity to cater brunch at the Crestmore Manor in Riverside. From 11am - 3:00 pm, families joined us to celebrate their mothers and the important women in their lives. We saw moms and their new borns with huge smiles on their faces enjoying their first Mother's Day and great grandmothers continuing traditions with generations of family. A live jazz band played while guests enjoyed mimosas and the time spent together. As people walked around the mansion a photographer took family photos while others danced to the music and helped themselves to the buffet.

The best part about the day was when the families were leaving with memories and great compliments about the food and service. We are looking forward to our next Mother's Day in 2010 and seeing the families come again to continue a timeless tradition.
