Cabin Fever...

Maddy & Tucker here-

We are doing a joint entry because we feel the same way. You see, it has been very cooooolllldddd this week. I think on Thursday it only reached like -4 degrees (yes, that is below zero). It was crazy! Tucker and I went out to do our business and promptly came back in. Even Will might be starting to go a little stir crazy. Take a look at what he did to his room today! I thought Em would be mad but she just smiled. He was happy and enjoying exploring his new world. Take a look....

Happy New Year!

Hello Everyone!

Maddy here. We had a wonderful Christmas and New Year. We did lots of travelling. Tucker hurt his knee before we left but he still managed to hobble around without too much trouble.

Our first stop was on the 23rd in Quincy, IL. We went to visit Grandma Betsy. My cousins Carly,Ingrid and Liam were there along with Auntie Dawn, Auntie Alicia, Uncle Derick, Uncle Larry and Aunt Tangie. Will was a good traveller. He loved playing with the toys at Grandma's. His favorite was a truck.




He played with that while everyone was opening presents. He really wasn't all that interested in the presents. He received lots and lots and seemed to enjoy the books the best. He is a book worm.




Here are the pictures of our cousins, Carly, Liam, and Ingrid.

After Grandma's house we went home to spend Christmas day at home. We opened stockings and a few small gifts. Em got Will and Dave matching shirts. Kind of cute.




On the 26th we headed down to Huntsville, AL, to visit Dave's brother and family, Larry and Tangela and Carly. We had a nice, relaxing visit. Dave disc golfed and Em, Will, Tangela and Carly did a little shopping. Tucker and I held down the fort.

We hope your family had a nice holiday and have a wonderful NEW YEAR!

Lots of Love,
Maddy
