Team March celebrations...

Wow... March is already gone! How is that possible?

My mom arrived in Vienna the first week of March to help us celebrate "Team March's" birthdays.
"Team March" is Brad, Abby and my mom- who all have birthdays just one day apart from each another.


She graciously offered to watch our kiddos, so Brad and I could have a few days away to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary and both of us turning the big 4 0 this year! 

We decided on a quick trip to Venice!





































Venice was absolutely fantastic!  We loved the architecture, the food, the people, the gondola ride, the ability to have no agenda and just enjoy the city and one another.  Our hotel room had a view of a canal, and was located between Piazza San Marco and the Rialto bridge.  They also provide a free water taxi ride for you to visit the glass factories in Murano. Two of our favorite restaurants were Algiubagio and Cantina do Mori.  And of course don't forget the gelato...yum!


Then it was back to Vienna for more celebrating!  On Brad's actual birthday, we went to one of our favorite restaurants in Bratislava called, El Gaucho, for a special birthday dinner for everyone...


then on Abby's birthday, we went to an indoor water park with a few of her friends.  So fun and chill!


And then on Sunday, a good friend of ours made a HUGE Sachertorte to share at NCW!

We had so much fun celebrating! :)

Moments with Memoo...


On this vacation, we decided that every kiddo got to have a special moment with Memoo...

:: Abby and Memoo swam with the dolphins

:: Luke and Memoo went Parasailing
Getting their instructions


Memoo getting fitted for her gear

Luke's turn now

their parasail

Brad praying for their safety, and Levi thinking that he may not see Memoo alive again :)

Ready

Set

GO!

They both said the view was of course spectacular...and I wish you all could have seen Memoo's arms flapping like a bird, pretending she was flying!  It was too funny :)

and here they landed safely after about 15 minutes in the air



Look at their smiles!


:: Now it's Levi's turn!  He and Memoo went jet-skiing

and they are off... quite slow at first, but once he got the hang of it, he was willing to go much faster


more smiles, more fun and more great memories!  Thanks for being such a good sport Memoo! :)
