For this Valentine's Day we had a picnic in Celebration. We went with Kevin, Terri, Kacey, Michael & Makenzie, Steven, Brenda & Jordan and Kathy & Andrew. It was a lot of fun and we had some nice ice cream at Kilwin's afterwards. We are hoping to make this a family tradition, we had a lot of fun just relaxing and hanging out.
My little baby girl turned 3 on February 3rd. We had a super fun party for her at the park again this year. Thank you to everyone that was able to make it and for her wonderful gifts, she had a blast!
Talking to Daddy on the phone after she woke up so he could wish her a Happy Birthday!
She is so grateful when she gets gifts...I love it!
I love my presents!
If you've been reading my blog the last couple days...I've been posting about my vacation but I've been posting them backwords so that you start from the top with the beginning and you go down until the end...this is my last vacation post :) So now you can read it in order... :)
So here goes...
Well I decided that I wanted to visit my family so I called my aunt who had a free ticket she was going to let me use. I thought it would be fun to surprise my parents and just show up. So I got my ticket and that next Tuesday.
The plane ride was fearful, but the kids ended up being perfect...both on the way there and on the way back to Orlando. I receieved many compliments on how well my children travel. I'm lucky I guess!
A few people knew that I would be there because I did need a little help with my plan. I called my brother Ryan and he picked me up from the airport. We headed straight to my mom's office where she was slammed with work. I came at the wrong time for her work schedule, but that didn't matter. We sent Kaylie into the office alone and then Ryan followed. I guess my mom looked at Kaylie and thought that it looked like her, but didn't have a clue why my brother had a little girl with her so she was just confused. Well then I walked in with Lucas and she just stood there in total shock. She came right over to Kaylie and just teared up, it was so exciting. Until she got home from work that night she just couldn't believe that we were there and were able to surprise her. It was a blast! I'm glad we did it this way and because of this she even got a couple days off!!!
My brothers are so awesome with my little ones. They constantly have Kaylie laughing or crying :) and they were great with Lucas. When Lucas was crying a ton because his schedule was way off...they had the "special hold" Thanks Ryan & Jason for being awesome brothers and super uncles.
