My Birthday

My husband presented me with these three vials and I got to play something like a game of deal or no deal. I picked a vial, opened the scroll, which revealed "50% off the bike of your choice." My curiosity got the best of me--as much as I wanted that new bike I decided to trade this in for another vial. I opened the next one and and got a weekend getaway of my choice, including two outfits from Anne Taylor Loft (my favorite). I stuck with this option.

I did get to open the last vial, just to see what it was....a landscaping project of my choice! That would have been a good one too, but I'm glad I stuck with Anne Taylor and the weekend getaway. Ah, he knows me so well.

My mom and dad made "better than sex" cake and Easter dinner and it was wonderful...ham, potatoes...It was the first holiday that I can remember in which our whole family was together and my mom and dad were able to host dinner. It's been almost five years since my mom had a stroke, and things are still settling in to the new normal. In the following picture with my mom, taken this past Easter, I'm wearing the "rabbit ears" that I was given on Good Friday in the hospital, just after I was born.
