Mother's Day 2013

Mother's Day was wonderful.  I got up at 4:30am and went for a 10-mile run, which was incredibly relaxing (except for the snake at about mile 5 that was in the middle of the path!).  Then, the girls surprised me with gifts, cards, and lots of hugs/kisses (wait, Mommy is all sweaty and smelly, can't I shower first????  no?  ...okay then).  L made me a beautiful candy dish at school, along with a sweet sweet card.  Then, both E and L gave me cards they made/drew, a heart rate monitor, Breaking Dawn part 2 (the husband was groaning on this one, lol!), and a bag of Riesens.  It was wonderful!  Then, we headed out to breakfast at Golden Corral with FIL and MIL to celebrate the day.  I love going there to eat after a long run, and I especially love hanging out with the in-laws.  After that, it was back to the house to watch Monsters, Inc. with the girls (x2?  I can't remember).  They loved it, I loved it, and we had a fun lunch afterwards and then a loooooong nap.  The husband made a fabulous dinner of hot dogs, the girls were really good at bed time, and then I watched the movie right before bed.  Couldn't ask for a better day!
