Tis The Season... !

Merry Christmas ! We are finally getting over being so sick...the kid's have been great though it all. Ryan and Mark arrived safely home from Virginia, and they had a great time looking at farms.

Pretty much the minute the guys left for the airport, 2 of the kids got really sick. 9 throw ups within 24 hours. This is how it works, you know. Then Emily got sick. I knew it was just a matter of time before I had it. That all of the Lysol in the world couldn't stop it. Then I got it SOOOO much worse then the kids. Today is my first day back to kind of normal. We've been out of commission here for awhile. A long while, to be exact.

Mark has had his hands very full taking care of us, plus getting ready for Christmas. I really hope he escapes whatever it is that we had. Which would be unusual, but a girl can hope !

Happy Birthday, Grammy Sue !

We love you !

School

This is a candid shot of Daniel and Emily doing school. They love to do it ! The best time at our house is when all 4 kids are around the table doing school.

Mark and Ryan left at 5 AM to go to the airport to PA/MD/VA for a farm convention. The farm conference is in PA, but they are flying into BWI and then will drive to PA. 2 days later, they drive back and trek around VA. Hopefully they will have time to see my brothers in MD/VA !
