My birthday is on May 4th, Forry's is on May 22nd. We thought it would be cool to get married right between the two dates, so our wedding anniversary is on the 14th. Throw Mother's Day in there somewhere and our kids really hate to see May come! Then toss in the fact that we have been "getting rid of stuff" ever since we decided to sell our house and live full-time in Auntie Violet and you can see why they struggle with giving us presents.
This year our two daughters went together and got us a gift certificate in the most unusual place -- and for an unusual combination of gifts. There is a place in Woodburn, Oregon called Wellpoint. It is a combination spa, aesthetic center, wellness center, walk in clinic and gourmet restaurant! The first part of our gift was a dinner reservation at Vitality Restaurant. (The other part of their gift is massages at the same place...)
We had an absolutely wonderful dinner tonight. We started off with lettuce wraps, then Forry had a flat-iron steak and I had lamb. We had some great Walla Walla wine and a mousse for dessert! What a delicious feast!
what a great gift!
