Naples Visit








Maddy and I went to Naples this weekend while Clint stayed in Tampa to catch up with a friend that flew into town from Indiana. We got there on Friday and had a delicious dinner with my mom...Memaw to Maddy....and the rest of the gang. Then we headed to my sister and David's house to begin play marathon, round 1. All the girls played hard until after 10:00...at which time it was time to go to bed (for Cindy and I at least). They all woke up early the next day and began play marathon, round 2. That continued through the day...with no napping of course...until it was time to go see my dad...Medad to Maddy.....for dinner. He brought some presents for Maddy and then treated us to dinner at Carrabba's (I have no clue how to spell it but I do know how to eat WAY TOO MUCH of their food). Once we got home from dinner, David built a fire in the fire pit and the little girls "roasted" marshmallows....which to 2 and 3 year olds, means eating them right out of the bag. Brooke did however roast hers correctly and enjoyed each one of them immensely. Bedtime was much earlier for Britt and Maddy that night...8:15....and you can guess who was right next to each of them:) This morning was another early riser and play marathon, round 3. It started at Cindy and David's house, where Maddy got to ride the Barbie Jeep with her Uncle David. She thought that was VERY cool. Then we went to Aunt Franny's house where Maddy got a couple of adorable outfits and lots of love from Fran, of course. Finally, we landed at Memaw's house again where the girls played for a couple more hours before it was time to head home. Maddy was putting all of the pine cones (that live in a basket at the base of my mom's stairs) into a plant...she told us she was "making the plant beautiful."
We had a blast and appreciate everyone's hospitality. Can't wait to see everyone again on the 24th for Christmas at Disney!
Enjoy the pics...I LOVE the one of her in the wig...classic!
