Happy Holidaze

Oh, the holidays go by way too fast, don't they? We were fortunate to have the whole fam damily here this holiday- Rory got about 10 days of leave from the Army, Taylor had Emery off and on, and we have Madison, Jake and Isla living with us as well, not to mention Sydney and Carson- OK we won't mention them... it was a lot of fun. As usual though, we didn't get our Christmas cards sent off, so we'll send them as we get around to it- no pressure, right?



















It was the first time that the wee babes (Emery and Isla) had seen each other face to face. Emery was so excited to see baby Isla. After Madison, Jake, and Isla had moved up, Taylor had told Emery that Isla was up at Grandma and Grandpa's, she said, "Baby Isla is here!?" I think she was starting to get a little jealous of wee baby cousin though. One day I was holding Isla and Emery said, "Grandpa hold me". I said I was holding Isla. So, she said "Grandpa hold me first". Dang, is sure is fun to be a grandpa and be loved by such sweet little things. I sure love spoiling them.

Jake also got a little puppy- a chihuahua/terrier mix. It was hard keeping it a surprise from him... or, maybe he knew and it was hard for him to make it a surprise for us???

We had a lot of fun eating, playing games, eating, staying up late, and more eating. Now there is a new year ahead of us and time to put the new year's resolutions into gear... more exercise and eat less. Good luck to us all! And may it be a prosperous new year for everyone!
