George Bush Museum & Library

Mike worked hard to make my birthday really special this week.  I got little surprises every day, leading up to my actually birthday (9/26) as well as a surprise lunch at Ozona's Bar & Grill and an outing to the George Bush Museum/Library which had a Baseball Exhibit at the time.  However, we had to bring Nick along as he had been sick so a fever the day before prevented him from going to school the day of our outing.  So... we weren't able to see quite as much as we'd have liked, but it was still a great outing.

The Princess Ball

Every year, our church puts on a Princess Ball for Daddys and their daughters.  Mike took Mikaela for the first time last year.  They just went to the dance.  This year, Mike took her to dinner first, before heading to the dance.  I think this will become a highlight for Mikaela every year as she grows and learns from her daddy that she should always be treated like a princess from any boy who might try to win her heart in the future.

Seeing Cinderella there was probably the highlight of her night

ICE!

Last week, Mike's company Christmas party was at the Gaylord Texan.  We were able to go and enjoy a delicious meal, a glass of wine (beer for Mike) then we slipped out to attend ICE!.  We attended a few years ago with some friends but decided to go back ourselves since we were able to get cheap tickets.  Enjoy!
