Last year at Christmas....my daughter from NE. was able to come home for the big family Christmas with my brother and sisters and all their families. I was just sitting there when my daughter and daughter in law walked up to me with a gift....a picture of all my kids and grandkids together.....one is from Arizona...one from NE and one from Minnesota. It's the first and only time I have had a picture of all of them. Two families are military...they had gotten together and did this for me.....I cried for ten minutes!

Wow, that does sound like a lovely day! Congratulations! =) Hmm... I'm trying to think the last time something like that happened to me. Occasionally my husband brings me home somethings nice (usually candy, which I crave) but I don't think it really surprises me. Actually my birthday was probably the last time I was surprised like that, because I was expected our money situation would mean I wasn't really getting anything, and I wound up with not only a cake, but also some Naruto figurines I had been wanting! =)

You look great! I LOVE hearing about husbands who take care of their wives and show appreciation for them. I know sometimes either spouse can be taken for granted, but moms especially sometimes get overlooked. Thanks for encouraging us by telling us about your fantastic day. Hope today is just as good. : )

What beautiful flowers! And your hair is cute too! What a GREAT way to spend a day. I spent it at cat adoptions (nope, my cat didn't get an app.) And I was beading. I did do a "dueling iphones" with a guy sharing our pix!

I envy you. The best I've ever gotten is either a massage or a night out. You got all that. YOU were spoiled. Very, very spoiled and all I have to say is: YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like you had a fun time Pattie. I'm glad you got to spoil yourself a bit. I think I'll have to do the same someday. Or at least, try to get a day or two off to just breathe and relax.
