Valentine's Day





We had a wonderful weekend and a great Valentine's day! Maggie enjoyed opening her cards (especially the one that sang "you are my sunshine", as Barbara sings that to her all of the time). We went to eat lunch with Barbara's mom and aunt, walked around the mall, and Maggie and Barbara had their nails done (what I got both of them for Valentine's Day). We then came home and cooked out hamburgers. Today I had off and was able to see Maggie's gymnastics class. She is getting so good! We went to eat with Mia and her family and then went to Mia's to play. Maggie was soooo tired, but hung in there until about 8:00.
Last weekend we had Barbara's mom, aunt and cousin Beth over for dinner. Beth brought Maggie her own rake and gloves to help me out in the yard this spring. She LOVED them!

We are getting ready to go to Florida on March 3rd. We will be visiting my dad and stepmom and grandmother for a couple of days and will then head to Disney World. I can't wait to see how Maggie reacts to seeing all there is at disney. We will go to the Magic Kingdom one day and to Animal Kingdon another, before coming home on Sunday.
Maggie's "gotcha day" anniversary is on March 17th and we are trying to plan on what to do for the occassion. Any ideas are welcome. I can't believe it's been almost a year since we go to hold our little princess for the first time. She is an amazing child and we are so blessed to have her in our family.

We also will be in FL the same time. We get on the cruise on March 5. We were thinking about starting the drive on March 3 and stopping to rest when we needed. We were thinking about the Magic Kingdom but I don't know if we will go there this time or not. The girls are excited about going on the disney cruise. We to are trying to decide what to do on Gotcha Day. It is hard to believe we have been home a year. It seems like yesterday we were in China together.
