12/11/08 Birthday Visit to Magic Kingdom





Grace really enjoyed her first visit to Magic Kingdom. We spent the whole time in Fantasy land. We rode every ride except Dumbo. Grace loved them all. Her favorite was the carousel. If you are ever at Disney on your birthday they will give you a free Birthday pin (if you ask)and all the cast members make a point of telling you HB all day-it was very sweet.

12/10/08 Grace's Birthday party at the Park

Grace celebrated her 1st Birthday at Hermits Trail Park
We were so happy to share the day with our special friends who have expereinced all the firsts with us.

Santa arrives in Orlando

Tonight Santa landed at the Mall at Millenia! What Christmas in November you say? And before Thanksgiving! Oh MY!
And we had to see it of course. Grace's friends Reagan, Carter and James went too. It was a nice event for children. Santa appeared on the rooftop of the Cheesecake Factory
resturant amid smoke and fireworks. They had these cute characters running around plus more but my camera was acting up again and these are the only good ones we got. The people were waiting online at least an hour to get the first picture with Santa. We will go back another day. Who knows maybe it will be your Christmas card this year....

Grammy brought Grace a miniature sled Christmas ornament with her name on it- she was giving presents on her own birthday. Thank you Grammy!

In Honor of Veterans Day



Thank you to all the veterans we know and love who fought for our great country!
This is my favorite quote. It is written on the Korean War memorial in Washington D.C.

Grace's surcie from Great Auntie Cathie

Monday, October 27th started our Halloween week off to a great start when Grace received her first Halloween book sent by Great Auntie Cathie. In the back is a space to put a picture so it can show Grace dressed up in 5 different adorable costumes. We read it every morning during breakfast. I am going keep this picture in and add a new one every year as a keepsake and a tradition. Thank you Auntie Cathie. XOXOXO We love you!
