Holiday Review

We had a great Christmas in Iowa, and we hope you enjoyed yours too!  We celebrated with just the five of us the night before we left and had a small get together with the Wiggs on New Year's Day.  We all enjoyed the time with family and the break from the normal routine.

 The grandkids:  Pearl, Macey, Nic and Miles.

No, she did not hit him; Miles wasn't feeling the best Christmas Eve, 
but we powered through it and had a great evening.


Unfortunately, Christmas Eve night, Pearl had a four-hour coughing attack.  I was the lucky parent who got to stay up with her and sleep on the floor in the room you see above, while she slept (eventually) on the couch.  Thankfully, I was able to sleep a little extra the next day.  All three kids had some fever/respiratory thing over the break, but I think we are on the mend.


 Reading from a new book they got for Christmas.


 Star Wars kids!  Pearl and Miles watched Clone Wars with Gavin
while I took Macey to watch an in-house gymnastics meet.

Taking care of Arcee.

Happy New Year!!
This was our cake pop toast.  Pearl was at a friend's house.
Gavin was at a gig.  I was hanging out at home with the Twiggs.



Until next time,
