Jason and I decided to surprise the girls for Valentines weekend by using up some of our "points" Jason has earned from his traveling for work and getting a free night at the Holidome in Terre Haute, IN. It was so much fun! I loved being able to surprise them. I packed without them knowing on Friday and then late Friday afternoon, we told them we were heading over to Plainfield to shop and eat out for dinner. The two younger ones fell asleep on the way and didn't realize where we were but almost to Terre Haute, Allie began to wonder where we were headed. Once we arrived there, we joked w/ her about how much fun it would be to just spend the night somewhere there and then when Daddy pulled into the hotel and went inside, she was really questioning me! ; ) When he got back in the van, the other 2 girls were awake and we proceeded to tell them that we were staying the night there for swimming and fun! They of course responded in the Massey girl fashion and SCREAMED for joy! ; ) We had a great time swimming in their heated indoor pool, relaxing in the hot tub, eating pizza in bed, staying up late to watch some of the Olympic opening ceremonies and then capped off our night watching the Disney movie "Princess and the Frog". We woke up Sat. to more swimming, a huge breakfast buffet (yum-o!) and then finally headed home....what a wonderful way to spend Valentines Weekend....I love our family! ; )
