The top answers: 1- family time; 2- flowers; 3-time alone or peace; 4- dinner; 5- a vacation

We also shared some ideas for the Mother’s Day procrastinator – here are some luxury gift ideas from the New Yorker magazine:

  • a Shiatsu foot massager – the Japanese style of massage; some of these are even heated!
  • linen sheets – there are some inexpensive luxury sheets out there that can make mom’s sleep time special…
  • a sitting ball chair – these are still popular in the office, but you can get some that actually look like they belong there!
  • a lighted vanity mirror – you can spend a few bucks on this, but a good one will last a long time!

Thanks for listening!

Mystery Monday

Today Todd and I talked about something with an unsuspecting depth to it and that is names! It’s “Fun facts about names day”,  so we celebrated by sharing the meaning of our names and talking about names in general!

The meaning of Todd’s Name 

The meaning of Hannah’s Name 

The Power of God’s Names  

We also talked with Joe Rinehart who is on the way to the NAIA basketball tournament to cheer on and report back the games with our MVNU Men’s Basketball Team, The Cougars! Click here if you want more information! 

We played Mystery Box today, and because our item was a little abstract we jumped right into the touch test!

Todd had two questions to ask, here they are with the answers!

  1. Is this a piece of paper?  – yes!
  2. Is this paper blank? – No!

At this point, we asked for what was on the paper.

Congrats to Peter from Howard who guessed what was on the mystery box Paper, which was a list of names – our birthday list to be exact. He won that $5 Gift Card to Troyer’s of Apple Valley!
