It's a Beautiful Day!

I was awakened this morning by my lovely family with breakfast in bed. Now, this is not unusual as it happens every year on Mother's Day and my birthday. What was unusual was the fact that I was actually still deeply asleep when they woke me at 8:30. First of all, I NEVER sleep that late, and secondly I never sleep through everyone else getting up. I was up for a couple of hours in the middle of the night so I guess that explains the deep sleeping!

I had a lovely breakfast and then we spent the morning playing games. My FIL called and told us that my MIL was too sick to do lunch this afternoon, which we were expecting, but I was so thrilled to just be able to stay at home with my family. i enjoy going out with my inlaws, but going out to a restaurant that doesn't take reservations on Mother's Day is crazy, so I'm glad yo have it put off for a while and glad, as I said, to hang out in my house all day.

My mom is on her way over now and Mark has the grill fired up to make my very favorite dinner! We'll hang out and watch the Survivor finale together, as we do each year on Mother's Day. Thanks CBS!

All in all it's been an amazingly peaceful day, which I think i needed today as the next two weeks are crazy insanely busy with all the end of the year/graduation stuff!

Happy Mother's Day to all of you!!
