Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day wasn't all that bad, just another day to put behind us. I did get to talk to Tara so of course that made my day and I got Valentine's Day packages from Tara, Mom and Dad, and the Family Readiness Group in Wayne.

The box below is from Tara - she told me I needed to explain the significance of the fortune cookie more so you didn't think she was crazy... When we got engaged in Kansas City we went to eat at one of our favorite places, PF Changs. Tara didn't eat much because she felt "ill" after I asked her to marry me! HAHA (Tara - you told me to explain...) Anyhow the following Valentine's day we went to PF Changs in Omaha for dinner and after she gave me a silver fortune cookie to remember our engagement. I brought that silver fortune cookie with me over here. Now, to the present, in the box pictured amongst all the fortune cookies there is one giant fortune cookie. At first I thought this was to eat so I didn't bother with it until I was out of the small ones. However, when I decided to take a closer look at the big one, I found it was plastic. It's actually a fortune cookie shaped magic 8-ball. So when you shake it and ask it a question, then turn it over it tells you the answer to your question!
