Springfield suprise

This past weekend we surprised Brenna and Taylor with a little getaway to Springfield, Missouri. We had a great time. We went to dinner, took the girls ice skating, and then as an extra bonus, went to the Springfield Cardinal's baseball game that was just down the street from the ice rink. We did all that on Friday... Saturday, we hit the mall and a few other stores to catch the big Labor Day sales. It was really nice to get away, and even more fun to surprise the girls.

Earlier in the day on Friday while we were doing school, and it was raining, Brenna commented that they had not been ice skating in so long and that they would really like to go. I had to bite my tongue to keep from saying anything. I had packed their bag and hid it in our room without them even knowing, so they truly had no idea what was coming. Their faces lit up when their daddy came in and said,"Come on, lets go!"

How fun!!! Brenna and Taylor look like they were loving it. I can't believe how big Kara is getting.
