Saturday, my darlin' hubby decided to take our daughter Madison and her cousin Kristina to Bass Pro Shops in Orlando. Maddy loves it there and Kristina had never been. (and Mommy had some lovely time alone!! Gotta LOVE that!!)

The girls were so excited to touch a real Nascar race car. This one belongs to Martin Truex...not one of our fave drivers, but cool nonetheless!!



They just love the whole "posing" thing!! Can you tell??


This is where it gets serious. There is a bass fishing legend named Bill Dance who was doing a meet and greet that day. He happens to be one of my hubby's all time favorite fishermen. All of our girls have watched his show through the years and THEY GOT TO MEET HIM!!!

Here is Bill with Maddy


And with Kristina


And with my hunky hubby!! OH SWEET PEAS!!! My hubby came home with his face glowing like Moses coming down from the mountaintop!!


His rich reward for treating these little girls to a day of fun was to have all the time he wanted shootin' the breeze with Bill!!

(He just came behind me and saw that I was posting this, and said to be sure to email these pics to his office so he can show them off!! TOO CUTE!!!)

Bill, being the warm, friendly man he is signed half a dozen pictures for Randy to bring home and share!! He talked to Randy like they had been buddies all of their lives. He was so thrilled!!

A day they will always remember!!


HAPPEE WEDNESDAY, YA'LL!!
HUGS,
BECKY

  12. Sounds like it was a trip that worked out wonderfully for everyone Becky - including those of us who are getting to read about it! The photos are gorgeous - looks like everyone had a great time! You left a comment on my blog about backing it somewhere - I am not sure what that means, so if you have a mo would you mind letting me know. I suspect it is in case the blog crashes (??) but perhaps not. Hope it's not a pain request - but if you had a moment spare to email me to explain what you mean I'd appreciate it fionamkernaghan@hotmail.com.

    Thanks, and blessings to you all Becky!
