Happy Birthday To Debbie!

She celebrated with the Kehr family in NC.

We had such a fun day together.  The girls were so excited to give her attention and make the day grand.
We sang
We watched her open presents
We ate, as usual
After the kids went to school, Summer and Debbie went antiquing in the nearby towns
We found this Great sign in Emerald Isle
The day was fantastic.  It was such a treat to be together for a wonderful day!

Me and Mom in the Tampa airport waiting for Maria to pick us up. Mom is on the phone calling everyone and saying, "Omgosh...we are finally here after being bumped, bumped, bumped on that *damdelta." (it is the price you pay for the price you pay....so I have been told) Mom had a great time (I think) on her visit to Florida. We had great weather and had fun being together....we didn't do much...she didn't want to ride the teacup's at Disney...so just laid around and stared at each other. My kind of vacation.

*she didn't really say damdelta....I did (dean).

Poor Maria recovering from her THIRD deviated septum surgery. She was under the knife for about 2 hours and is recovering well. She hopes that she can breathe now so that she can "stop and smell the roses" literally. Donations and sympathies can be sent to the usual address.

We had a Magical Week in Florida
A few weeks ago we took a drive down to the Magic Kingdom. We did Epcot, Disney, MGM and the Wild Kingdom--a different park each day. The weather was perfect, the crowds- not too bad, the girls are the perfect ages for it. The olders aren't too old to be kids and the babe was just tall enough (with shoes on) to go on every ride. It was awesome!

A highlight of the trip was getting to stay and be with Uncle Dean and Aunt Maria. We were so comfortable in their fabulous home. They definitely fall under 'Hostess with the Mostess' category. The girls loved hanging out with Aunt Maria. They made cookIedough together and she was a fresh audience to tell about all the rides they went on that day. We got to be with Dean one night he was home. It was Mardi Gras so Jonathan made us a Shrimp Boil meal...Divine!Thanks again! Love and miss you Tons!
