Daddy Daughter Dance

Elizabeth and Kirk attended the Daddy Daughter Dance. This year's theme was a Hawaiian Luau. Elizabeth wore a pretty flowered sundress with a Lily clip in her hair. Kirk had a pink, floral vest underneath his nice black tuxedo. He had it made last minute. They looked lovely together though. Sounds like Elizabeth just ran around the dance floor all night chasing her friends, but they had fun.

Florida

After our Dufon Christmas, we flew to Florida for a little warm weather. Except there was no warm weather. It was Freezing!

The kids swam the first day we got there and that was the end of swimming! Can't believe it was so cold. We still had a lot of fun. One day we went to the Manatee Park to see the manatees. Although it was really cold and we didn't stay too long :).

We also got to catch up with family. We had dinner a couple times with Aunt Cathy and Uncle Tom Roessler and Aunt Gretchen Roessler. We played spoons one night which everyone except Aunt Kathy loved. She was a really funny sport about it though.

Another day, we had lunch with Aunt Chick, Uncle Jerry and Aunt Honey and Mary Ann. Wow, it was so good to see them. I wish we could have gotten together more, but our time was so short while we were in Florida.

The rest of our time was spent loading up on stuff. Someone has to keep Target and Costco in business since the rest of you Americans aren't spending money. Oh - how I miss those stores :).

We did have a chance to go to Naples and check out a sunset. Honestly, in our years going to Naples, this was one of the most beautiful sunsets we've ever seen. Wish we would've known more about how to use our new camera. We also hit the Cheesecake factory. I love that place and their fish tacos.

The weather never improved. Stayed cold the whole time so the kids didn't get their normal swim time in. It was okay, we still had fun.
