Since we went on a day trip yesterday for our anniversary, today happened to be more of a normal day for us. JP had already scheduled the day off, so we made arrangements to have the van checked out--oil change, brake job, etc. We dropped the van off, picked up Tera from work and dessert for dinner.
I put a pork loin with potatoes, carrots and onions in the crockpot for dinner. (Once I made horrible chili for our anniversary, and vowed to always have a nice meal for special occasions even if we had already celebrated!)
School with the kids, while JP went out bargain shopping. Picked up graduation announcements, Tera's graduation gown from the dry cleaners and the car from the shop. JP found Tera the record player she's been wanting for a great price.
Dinner and dessert with the kids and exchanging presents.
When
JP and I were dating, the first gift he gave me was a bracelet just
like this one. Years later we took it be repaired; they replaced the
clasp with a different one. One day it fell off and I lost it. To say I
was upset is a severe understatement. I still hope that one day
I'll find it in the house somewhere, but so far after several years I
haven't.
Today on our 25th anniversary, JP surprised me with a new bracelet just
like my other one with the original type barrel clasp. The jeweler
told him they didn't make those clasps anymore, but he happened to have
one and they custom made the bracelet. I cried...I love that man of
mine!
