Florida: Grandma Manicure

On our last day in Venice, we had a lot of fun with Grandma Josie. We pampered her with a special manicure and Maya loved playing in her room.

It was hard to say goodbye. We hope Grandma Josie gets well soon and we look forward to our next visit.

Florida: Fun in Venice

During our time in Venice, FL, we stayed at a cool little inn by the beach. When we weren't visiting Grandma Josie, we had a nice time together as a family.

Florida: Over the River and Through the Woods...

...to Grandmother's house we go. Actually, we headed out of town on February 15th to visit two very special GREAT grandmothers. Our first stop was Venice, Florida to visit Todd's grandma, aka "Grandma Josie." She's been having some health issues recently and has been spending some time in a rehabilitation facility. We were very excited for Maya to meet her. Lucky for us, Papa and Grammy decided to visit Grandma Josie at the same time so we had a bit of a family reunion.

Maya loved looking at the planes. In fact, we had trouble pulling her away from the window.

Maya seemed enthusiastic about the flight...

...her parents, not so much.

Grandma Josie meets Maya for the first time. We wish we could have caught the big smile she gave when she first saw Maya and Daddy.

Enjoying a nice visit. Maya's Great Uncle Norm (Grammy's brother) lives in Venice and we enjoyed seeing him too (on the far right).
