How we spent the holiday

We loaded up the kids in the car and took off to Maryland via Atlanta. While we all survived the trip, it will be awhile before we do anything like that again. The kids did pretty good in the car and the hotels. We visited Troy's family and mine during our brief stop in Atlanta. The weather was nice when we got there, but overnight, got down right cold! It was cold most of our time in Maryland as well until the day we left when it was almost 70. Crazy weather!

Logan made the trip home sick and has ear infections yet again. Did not make for a fun night in the hotel. He is being treated with antibiotics and also with a nebulizer for some wheezing he has had. Morgan occasionally asks to go back to Nick's house even though it is a long, long, far drive according to her. She starts back up to school next week and that will be nice. Troy is probably going to take a job at MacDill AFB in Tampa so for the first time in over 3 years will have a regular job where he goes in the morning and comes back in the evening. That pretty much catches you up on our past few weeks. Here are some pictures from our trip to Maryland.


Although we have been to Pam's before and Morgan has seen Gingerbread, she really fell for her this time. She wanted to bring her home and get Auntie Pam a new Gingerbread. Logan just loved all the dogs he met on the trip.
The day after we got there, we all bundled up and headed to downtown DC and the Mall. It was really cold out! We went to the Native American Museum, Conservatory and the Air & Space Museum.










Christmas morning and someone was full of smiles for his first Christmas.

Morgan got a dollhouse from Santa and yes, we fit it in the car with all our other stuff for the trip home.


She also got a camera.


The day before we left, Pam, Mom and I took the kids to the National Zoo. Nick loves to hold Logan and Logan loves for Nick to hold him.

We saw the pandas and some cheetahs.
