Pleasant Surprises

My day sure started out as a doozy and I thought it was just going to be one of "those" days for sure. You know, we all have them.. when everything seems to just go wrong. Within my first two hours of being up for the day I: got toothpaste in my hair (had to rewash it), then got toothpaste on my shirt (had to change), spilt my coffee at work, knocked over all the cups, dropped the roll of paper towels and it unraveled over the dirty floor (that I then had to clean up), poked myself in the eye with my mascara (ouch..) and this was just the start of it. Yikes. Well GOOD Morning to you too, Ha - not. At least I was able to just laugh about it all instead of letting it ruin my day.

Thankfully, God answered my prayers shortly after this train-reck of a morning and the day turned right around for me.

Yesterday, April 21st, was Administrative Assistant Appreciation Day and it was forgotten by my boss (aka Dad), so today to make up for it, he took me and my co-worker Ally out to lunch at TGI Fridays. It was an AMAZING surprise and definitely made us feel very appreciated. We come back to work with a great attitude, and I have another surprise waiting for me....

My Grandma sent me flowers <3>

She is so sweet. I have been sick so she sent these to me to cheer me up, and they sure did help make my, once crappy day, a great one.

Easter Weekend

This past weekend was a blast.. Nothing's better that good food, good friends, GREAT weather and spending time with the ones you love. I had another packed weekend and actually remembered to take some pictures this time around.

Friday Donald and I met my sister Danielle and friend at Gilligan's for the first time this season for some king crabby legs, crab balls (or bites) and crab soup.. MmmmMMmm it was all SO good.

Saturday we woke up early, went watch Donald's daughter (Kamrie) play T-Ball, then went on a nature hike afterwards. We had such a good time, jumping over streams, catching fish and frogs, watching Donald be a monkey and climb trees, building a fire and cooking hot dogs for lunch :) We got back early afternoon to meet Angel and Billy and head to the DC Nationals v. Red Sox Game. Angel got four tickets from work and the seats were remarkable.. I've never sat so close at a game before, it was so cool!

Easter Sunday we went to Cobb Island church then over to visit with Donald's family before jumping back in the car and heading over to Calvert to spend the day with my family. Lots of amazing food.. I definitely ate too much. The afternoon was spent munching on more food, hiding easter eggs, playing croquet, fishing and eating some more.

All in all it was a very fun, action packed weekend, Happy Easter Everyone!!!
