Surprise Abuela! Trip to Spain!

Well, we pulled it off!  We surprised Abuela (Daniel's mom) by showing up to her door in Spain!  We have been planning this for several months and the time finally came.  I almost gave it away several times!  Thank you to Papa Mac for helping us with the planning and doing an awesome job in keeping the secret!  We had an awesome time and will not forget the memories!  Daniel and I were even able to get two nights away without kids...thank you, again, Abuela and Papa Mac!  We drove north to the beautiful Ordesa National Park and then over to the seaside town of San Sebastian.  Despite our poor Spanish language skills (Daniel asked a man if he knew what kind of gas we needed to put in our shopping cart...oops!  I mean car...) we had a great time!  We are so grateful to God's goodness to us...we are so not deserving!
