Ok, there are a whole bunch of pictures and they are out of order, because I had so much trouble uploading them and have been trying all week. These are from last weekend on our escape to the Great Escape Lodge in gorgeous Lake George in the Adirondacks, NY. We had a terrific time and the Lodge is connected to a Six Flags park that was not open, but they have a huge indoor water park with an entire area dedicated to toddlers and Savannah just loved it. Even Seth fell asleep in the swing in the water. They also have the Looney Tunes Characters so Savannah got to meet Scooby, Tweety, Sylvester, and Daffy Duck. It was a rainy weekend, so it was the perfect place to go. We also took her to an indoor play place called Explore, which she loved and we went outlet shopping, to Toys R Us and out to dinner at our favorite place with the big salad bar called the Log Jam. It was a fantastic way to celebrate our super special girl.
We also got her a wooden garage for her special day. Everytime we play at someones house or go to a play place and they have a garage with wooden cars and ramps, she is glued to it. So, I figured she would love one and she does. It has some small parts so we put it in her room and everytime she goes in she says, "Play my new toy."
We love you with all our heart our darling sweeheart, Savannah Hope. You are the light of our lives and the joy in our hearts. You make every day a surprise, fun, and exciting. Your smile brightens a room on the darkest day and your sweetness is evident from a first meeting. You are so special. We are so proud to call you our daughter and we celebrate you and how much you mean to us, not only on November 14th, but everyday.
The pictures from the water park and the play place are on Rich's iphone, but here are these for now. Enjoy! We are off to Florida in a week.

Savannah and Tweety, but I did not do a very good photo job

Relaxing in the lobby

She got this hat at Johnny Rockets and she "won" a slinky in the arcade.

Hi Baby Boy--just waking up at the restaurant

Just opened her present

Wow--she is realizing what it is

Studying it

Daddy did an amazing job putting it together

Can't pull her away for a second

The elevator is her favorite part

Up, up, up

Time for a car wash

More playing

Back to dancing with the characters at the hotel

Daddy and his girl

Doesn't get any sweeter

That's All Folks--our last night we had Daffy come to our room for milk and cookies
Doug totally wanted to do the milk and cookies thing, but we thought it would be a little freaky since the baby wasn't home yet. Do they have portacribs there, or did you bring a pack-and-play for Seth? We're thinking of going back for Easter.
ReplyDeleteWow! What a wonderful vacation. I love the paragraph at the end when you talk about Savannah being the light of your lives!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great time. Love all the pictures :)
