Sweet Home Carolina !!

We have arrived to the cold weather of Durham North Carolina. The kids are laid up, Drew with a nasty cold and Mariah with a broken foot. What can I say never a dull moment in the life of the Daffrons.

We have had a wonderful time spending time with friends and family. We have been getting into the holiday spirit and have enjoyed spending time in church and relaxing.

Doug and I hit the road on last Monday for Charlotte, Tue Doug headed to Virginia Beach to train and spend time, I taught lessons at the studio and prepared the tree with the kids.

Doug returned from Virgina Beach on Thur and we enjoyed a night out shopping and dinner.

Friday was a busy day with lots of kids in and out of the house, Drew planned a party with friends and Mariah was having fun with her favorite neighbors when she was doing flips on the trampoline and broke her ankle. We spent the evening from 11pm until 4am in the Duke ER and came home with a cast. I guess you can say this has been an early Christmas present. I did not ask Santa for this gift but will find the positive in all of this and tell you that as I carry my 5 year old bundle of joy my arms are getting stronger and I am using muscles in my back that I did not know I had. We have done some great art projects and have enjoyed spending time together.
I will post some photos of Mariah and her new dance partner "the cast" soon.
Hugs to all,
Missy
