Suprise

This morning Brandon headed off to work so that he could be there by 6. The best part was he was home before 10! He only had to work a little over three hours today. When he hits 40 hours he is off and today that happened early! It was a great surprise for me and for the boys, who were out of school today for Holy Thursday. What I did not know was this was the first surprise today, there are more to come.

I had a photo shoot but thanks to the weather it seemed best to cancel it. I probably was for the best since it started raining around 10 and it was at 10:30. The bottom fell out, but soon after the sun came up which was nice. Since the clouds had been pretty heavy for the past 2 days seeing some sunshine was nice.

UPS came this afternoon and brought me a box from FTD florists. It was from my amazing husband of 9 years and 364 days, tomorrow is our 10 year anniversary. He has always known how to make me smile and today he definitely did that. There was a very cool purple vase and once I finally got to them, the most amazing roses I have ever seen. They are rainbow roses and they are gorgeous! I plan to photograph these babies everyday so stay tuned! Definitely the most gorgeous roses I have ever gotten! I love my man for so many reasons, and these just added to it.

The boys both had games tonight. John Michael at 6:00 and Danny at 7:30. Well, John Michael made it to the second inning and the game was called. The weather got nasty fast, but did not last too long. We ended up getting to come home pretty early which was nice. I love baseball, but tonight I was tired and really just wanted to be home with my three men, and well my roses ;)

So I am off to bed, tomorrow is a day off, but it is a day filled with stuff to do including somehow celebrating 10 amazing years!

Rained Out

So today we were supposed to have soccer practice, but the rain won out for the day.
It was most definitely a nasty day. I seriously could have stayed in the bed most of the day. It was just one of those sleepy rainy days. Plus I did not get anything accomplished anyway. I probably could have at least gotten rid of the bags under my eyes had I taken a good nap. :)
The boys had a great day in school even though they were stuck inside most of the day. Recess and PE are almost always outside, but there has to be exceptions for rainy days. It was much needed though and they know tomorrow will be better.
Today was also progress report day. I was very happy with both of the boys' work. I know that they have been working hard, and I am super proud of them. I know that they will keep it up as they really do love to learn. They really make me happy.
Since it was rainy once homework was done we had a lazy day. I worked on laundry and that was about it. Next week I will be more productive. I would say the rest of this week, but I am actually pretty busy with photography sessions for the rest of the week. YAY!!!
Well, I still prayers. Thanks everyone. Know that you are all in my prayers!
