Lucky 13!

Today was our anniversary! We celebrated 13 years together. We have been so busy with church, school, work, and home, that I didn't make any real plans for our anniversary. I woke up this morning and and was disappointed in myself for not making any plans. I looked up and there was my oldest, with breakfast! She had made Randy and I breakfast in bed. Usually I know when the kids are doing stuff like that but this time, I was truly surprised. She had made pancakes (from scratch), ham, toast and fruit. It was delicious!!
After breakfast I was telling Randy, "I should have had you take the day off and we could have done something together while the kids are at school. (Big sigh). Oh well." Randy looked at me and said, "You want me to? OK." I looked at him wide-eyed, "What?!" "I'm taking the day off." I was so surprised that he was serious. After the kids left for school, he explained that he had already planned to take the day off and surprise me. Well, it was a surprise. As soon as the kids were gone, so were we. We did a little shopping for me, I needed some swimwear.

We headed back to the North Shore, grabbed our bodyboards and headed to our favorite surf spot (at least my favorite). Randy and I surfed out there for almost 2 hours. It was so fun to be out there with him, on a beautiful day at the beach.

We quickly grabbed lunch from the nearest plate lunch place. I was starving. I couldn't eat my food fast enough. It was such a great day!!
I am truly blessed with a great husband and children. Thank you dear, for the last 13 years!! I look forward to eternity!

P.S. Today is also my brother Joe's birthday! Happy 25th!!!
