Tis the Season to Wahoo.




The kids have been begging to go to the Winter Wonderland Festival at the Wahoo stadium since it opened up earlier this month. I'd heard mixed reviews, and at $11 each, I wasn't quite sure it would be worth it...the kids however disagreed. The Wahoo's ended up donating free tickets to both Santa Rosa and Escambia County School students & our lovely neighbors donated 2 unneeded to us as well, so we ended up going for FREE!! WAHOOOO!!! :) (<---get it...Wahoo for Wahoo's...give it a minute)

However, if we'd paid $60 for us all to go, I would have been disappointed. The activities were pretty sparse, a few inflatables, a small area of games drawn on the grass (Checkers, Twister, Tic Tac Toe) and of course the main draw, Ice skating. Only it wasn't REALLY ice skating, it was some sort of coated plastic The schedule said there was supposed to be a Christmas movie as well & Santa, but we didn't see either of those. The mini Brandts however really enjoyed it and didn't want to leave (even after they'd done everything at least 5 times). The stadium was decorated very pretty, and if nothing else it was nice to get bundled up and feel "Christmasy" here in Florida!

We finished the night with dinner at "Pizza Castle" aka Ozones. It's one of our fav's...even if it 's a bit creepy....

This is my favorite picture of the night. AB had the most trouble staying upright. Heaven's a natural however. She was so sweet with Annabelle and always stayed close incase she needed a lift up!

Birthday Bash Numero Uno

Pretend It's January 5th, 2013 It's Birthday Season here at the Brandito Lair! Mr. Brandt heads back tomorrow and it's time for the annual triple treat birthday party for Mr. B, Uncle Danny and Annabelle.  Katy made 2 delicious cakes for the event. The boys got their own green cake and Annabelle got her own special Mario Cake.  We had some delicious food and the Birthday people got lots of special prizes!  The UnBirthday Party was definitely a success! 

Baby You're A Firework

One of these outfits was self chosen....the other was chosen by Mama...can you guess which is which?                   Happy 4th of July everyone!!  It was a rainy 4th for us Floridians. But with the rain comes cooler temperatures, and I'll take a little wet over sweat any day.   We started the 4th off by sleeping in (which of course still means we were up by 9...) and then cooked out with the Brandt/Simmons clan for lunch. We'd planned to go to the Riverwalk area too take part in the crafts and whatnot but once the girls heard Ava was already at Nana's house...they could not be persuaded to do anything that did not include being with her.   Cousins                  It was overcast and cloudy all day, but we did manage to escape most of the rain. Until the fireworks that is. I'm talking lite...

Wackiness

  It's wacky hat day at PRE today. Only Annabelle felt inclined to participate as it costs 2 feathers. Heaven said it was a "total waste of feathers" and Gavin said nothing as his only hat is a Seminole hat and he's gone rogue lately claiming suppot for Gators. My dear Annabelle made up for both of their lack of sense & style.  She is both Fancy in my large sunhat and Fabulous in her FSU Friday decor.   Doesn't get much better. Happy Friday!
