Sakura Steakhouse / Foyer Group

Last night we went to the Japanese Steakhouse. As you can tell the chef moves very quickly, plus the bright light from the flames, I think made the pic blurred. Dick and Peter were having a great time, trying the different Japanese beer and exoctic drinks.  

Friday and Saturday night the girls had a sleepover with Grandma! Sophia wasn't feeling too good. Since the girls had stayed up until 10:30 on Friday, they had an earlier bedtime of 9pm on Saturday. Dick and I want to get started for our trip home about 8am. We made the trip in 13 hours which breaks our old record of 14.5 hrs.  

We arrived in Florida on Thursday night 2/9/06. The next morning I went to apply for my Florida Driver's License and Dick went to Pilates class. Then I met Melissa with Paige and Sophia and we went to Registar my car and then apply for a Homestead Exemption. When we finished all of that(which took less than an hour) we picked up Dick and drove him to "Clinton's" to pick up his shiny new red car. On Saturday Dick went to Yoga and I took Emma and Paige to the "Sandy Park" which I love because the playground is all sand covered and borders the ICW. You can see a sailboat heading South??? maybe a little too late. Things will really start getting busy in April when the boats start heading back to the Northern climates after spending the winter in Florida or the Carribean. It was a warm and sunny day near 70 degrees. I was sucking it in, since there was a forecast for 6-8" of snow in Maryland. Emma and Paige also love this park. We spent over 3 hours just hanging out. Between the water and the gym/swings set the girls were very busy. Dick brought us some of the girls favorite donuts from Dunkin Donuts and we had a little snack to give us an energy boost.

Grandpa Dick, Haley and Mom. Haley took a little nap in the middle of her Party. Then she came back to open gifts, eat some Strawberry cake, that was her Dad's favorite since he was a little guy. Grandma Rosermade the cake and she did a good job, the cake was beautiful with pink icing and real Strawberries for decorations. Next everyone put on their party hats and sang Happy Birthday! All in all, I think she really enjoyed her first Birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY HALEY!!!!!! 

Daddy, Grandpa Dick, Haley, and Grandpa Jim gather around to sing Happy Birthday. 

Danny, Haley, Courtney and Great Grandma gather around to open gifts, but I believe Haley was more interested in "The Five Little Catipillars" 

After Gregory's Party, I left and went to Haley's 1st Birthday. 

Today was the day we all got together for Gregory's Birthday. He will be 37??? on February 11th. We all chipped in to buy a Pochinko(sp??) game. It is like a Japanse ping ball game or so that is what they told me. Any way he seemed pretty happy, which is good because he is difficult to buy for. Karen had a big Chocolate/Chocolate cake, which is his favorite.
