Birthday day

January 29, 2020

What fun it is to be the birthday girl! Samantha is so easy to love and even easier to celebrate! The day started with lots of balloons and a chocolate doughnut…

Samantha is really into LOL Surprise dolls and she was SO excited to get three of the big OMG LOL dolls! Oh boy! These dolls are something else! ha!

I also got her an American Girl doll. She honestly barely acknowledged it but I’m hoping that once the LOL phase wears off she’ll really appreciate this awesome doll! Β πŸ™‚

But, the important thing was that this birthday girl was VERY happy!

There’s always fun to be had in Naples – we went to see the new Star Wars movie, did art projects and fireworks, played pinball and mini golf, made cookies, and played lots of Uno!

Citrus Bowl

January 16, 2020

Santa brought Maxwell tickets to see Alabama play in the Citrus Bowl. We made the drive from Naples over to Orlando on New Year’s Eve and had a fun dinner at the hotel to celebrate!

Of course when you stay in a hotel you have to get room service breakfast! These kids are living right!

It was a BEAUTIFUL day for some football! We were so excited to watch the Tide play and even got to see a Birmingham friend there!

I think Samantha’s favorite part of the game was the Mountain Dew she got to drink! ha! That girl drank that entire thing be the end of the first quarter. Talk about hyper!!
