The day before Labor Day Gail arrived, which we had managed to keep a secret from Madison! Mike picked her up from the airport and she called Maddy on Mike's cell from down the street. While they were on the phone and Maddy thought she was talking to Gail in England, she just walked into the house. It was so funny - Maddy was so confused and totally blown away! The next day we went to Orlando to meet up with Jen, Rich and Mya for Labor Day weekend - the start of my favorite part of the year:). The Hilton we stayed at was celebrating their one-year anniversary so there were lots of specials - free s'mores by the pool at night, dollar beers and cupcakes during the daytime and contests throughout the weekend. We upgraded our room to a huge, gorgeous suite and enjoyed some luxury for the weekend :).
Maddy's big surprise - a big hug with Gail...
Mike and I were very proud of ourselves that we managed to get to a 5K on the Saturday morning. It didn't even come close to compensating for the over-consumption of food/drink during the weekend though :)
The pool was perfect and we loved the not-so-lazy river and water slide...
Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas are just around the corner...now the year really begins!!!
