a day of do-gooding

i was up at 5 this morning for the heart walk (which went smoothly), so by about 2 p.m. when we made it home, my husband and i were both exhausted.  we decided to nap because we had another benefit to attend at 6.  ("a day of do-gooding," my SIL called it).

the fundraiser was for a wild bird rehabilitation clinic where my bff volunteers.  there were basket/gift raffles and silent auctions for trips, golf, restaurants, jewelry, etc.  out of all the goodies available, my husband was set on winning the 2 bottles of local honey.

when it came time to pull the winners, we stood up front because my husband was anxiously awaiting the result of the honey raffle.  luckily, he won, so i went up to retrieve the bottles.  he clung to them for the rest of the night, ridiculously happy.  it was all that we won, but all that he wanted anyway.

i love that the smallest things make him happy.
