Awesome day

Last week was pretty rough for the Paloff family.  Hearing a dear friend had lost her battle with cancer and knowing we wouldn't be able to get up to NJ to be there with our friends and EMS family, we were both pretty bummed, grumpy and just  generally miserable.  

Dave knew his sister and her family were coming down for an Easter Disney trip, their first ever.  So Dave worked out a little plan with his sister to surprise the girls.

We started Sunday with an early mass at 8:30 at a local Catholic Church.  All three of us really enjoyed it.  It was an odd blend of contemporary music and traditional mass mixed with a really relatable homily.  Just a great Easter service.

After a little breakfast and hot tub action, we got the kid ready for dinner and told her we had a 90 minute ride to dinner.  This kid had no question about driving an hour and a half for a meal.  When we finally got there and Isabella and Katrina walked into the restaurant the little girls instantly started shrieking and crying and Katrina just stood speechless.  It was such a sweet emotional moment for kids.  OK it's possible all four adults teared up too...

Easter 2014 - Kissimmee, FL

These girls hadn't seen each other in 5 months!

While the girls were sad to leave each other, their smiles were worth the few tears when we left.  Thanks to Andi and June for sharing a few hours of your family vacation with us.  We were so grateful!

Next up, David and EJ and Joey!
