Chicken Pox????

That's right, we believe Weslie has Chicken Pox. Mary's brother and his family were just here visiting and when they returned home their son turned up with Chicken Pox. So, we checked our girls and sure enough Weslie has the trade mark pox on her back and legs. Gabbie, so far, doesn't have any. Neither of the girls have a fever or are feeling sick or anything and Weslie's poxes are mild at the worst. You might be thinking that we should have had them vaccinated. We did. Both of our girls and Mary's nephew have been vaccinated against Chicken Pox.

Happy Thanksgiving

We had some visitors for the holiday. Mary's brother Steven and his family drove up all the way from Mississippi to see us. While they were here we took them on little tours of Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Washington D.C., and we also had Thanksgiving. It was a little tiring but a lot of fun.

Not Much Going On

The weather's crazy. It's cold, it's warm, wearing t-shirts, where's my coat? This is just a quick note about Gabbie. Gabbie's new favorite thing is putting up groceries. She loves to go through every bag and take out everything one at a time and ask, "What is this?". Then she'll say, "Oohhh" and give it to you. If it's something heavy when she picks it up she'll say, "I'm strong. I have muscles".

'Til Next Season

It's time to hang up the old cleats and jersey. Soccer season is over and not to soon. Weslie had fun and loved playing but it was starting to get cold at the last couple games. It looked more like practice than a game with most of the girls wearing heavy coats over their jerseys. At the end of the last game they gave out little soccer trophies. Weslie was so proud she took it everywhere to show people, around the neighborhood, church, the store, everywhere.
