So, we get to Maryland and thought we were going to have a brown Christmas. (boy were we wrong) I never though Maryland
could ever look like Idaho but I was proven wrong. The great thing about Maryland though is all the snow melted away in one night.


After the excitement of arriving to the house, Cricket decided he was done and laid down in his cute little basket to take a nap.
Tyler was soon to follow. (poor Tyler – such a big trip)

Donnas’ Nutcracker collection
Wow! What an experience. I know everyone there was used to seeing
Deer in the back yard, but that was a first for me. There was a whole heard of deer and one of them looked like she was hurt pretty bad. We nick named her Gimpy.
Off to visit…
The three of us went one day to go and visit some of Daniel’s friends. First we went to Johns Hopkins and saw Gale and Jan. They were so excited to see us.
They even threw Tyler a baby shower. Tyler got some cute clothes and a fun Toy.
After the 4 hr visit we went off to Dave’s Deals. From there were went to
Pam’s home and met her two yipping wiener dogs at the door. Pam was so excited to see us.
