Today is Ana Maria's birthday! After church we drove to Wilmington to meet Nicole and Daniel for a birthday meal at Macaroni Grill. We had a great Italian meal and a great time! The video at the bottom is of Ana and Nicole singing "Happy Birthday" in Portuguese. Very lovely! And that's good because the resturant singer wasn't feeling well today and couldn't sing for us :-)

Afterwards Ana and I went over to Belks to find a winter coat for her. I tried to find her one for Christmas, but wasn't able. But we found the perfect one in Wilmington today - a nice birthday present:-) We joined Nicole and Daniel at her house for a little while before returning to Jacksonville. The month is young, so we'll be celebrating Ana's birthday for awhile. This is kinda HER tradition! :-) Happy birthday...er.. ah... birth MONTH, Ana Maria!
