They had a little help in the procurement department, but said help shall remain anonymous. Taryn cooked me scrambled eggs and toast for breakfast, then we lazed around the house most of the day. I also got a gorgeous bracelet from my husband, but for some reason I am having the hardest time getting a good picture of it. As soon as I figure out where I'm messing up, I'll show it to everyone.
Today was our monthly regimental activity. We had a wonderful dinner catered by MCCS (Marine Corps Community Services, for those who don't know the lingo), and the kids decorated picture frames to send to their dads. We had a lot of fun, and I brought home three plants (sorry, honey!).
I actually forgot to mention, I've been feeling kind of lucky these past couple days. At the dinner last night, I won two door prizes. One was a pin - a yellow ribbon with an eagle, globe and anchor on it - and the other was a pretty little round picture frame. Today, I won one of the plants in a raffle (the other two I just kind of ended up with). It's kind of nice, since I usually never win anything. Now if I could just win the lottery - though, I've heard you have to actually play the lottery to win it. Oh well.
And so ends my Mother's Day. Tomorrow is another day...day 82, to be precise. I'll be back then!
