New Car 11/04/2008 We picked up the new car after the van was written off in the accident. It is a Chrysler Pacifica which Maria and the kids seem to like a lot. We once again have room to carry visitors should you decide to come and see us. Scotland Trip 6/4/2008 Miah and Lauren have just returned from a week in Scotland. Although it was wet cold and windy, they had a great time meeting their new Uncles, Aunts and Cousins. They liked it so much, they even brought Grandma back to Orlando for a vacation. heck out the family album page for pictures of the trip. The New Dog 1/4/2008 We have another new dog. He is a young puppy called Gizmo and he is a Shih Tzu. Check back later for pictures The Car Crash 1/4/2008 We recently had the unfortunate experience of being involved in a car crash, where we were hit from behind at high speed. We are all OK but Miah did suffer some injuries, with a broken nose and 5 stitches in her face. She was very very brave, telling the paramedic just to stick a band-aid on and she would be OK. Her stitches are out and she is recovering very well. Looking on the bright side, we ended up replacing the van with a new SUV.

Chickens and Strange Eggs
Maria is now raising chickens so we can have our own fresh eggs. We started with 12 little chicks but we only have 6 remaining. Sadie decided to kill a few and a couple died on their own. They have a lovely new home made chicken coop built by yours truly. Strangely enough, the eggs that they lay are a Greenish Blue color. Wierdest eggs I have ever seen but they taste pretty good.
Lauren is 3 Years Old
It is hard to believe but Lauren turned 3 on the 15th September. We had a little party for her to celebrate. I will be posting the pictures as soon as I remember to bring them home from the office. It is Miah's turn in December, she will be 11 years old. Of course they both act like they run the house.

I have added a number of pictures of the girls taken on Xmas Eve. They had a great Xmas. Lauren's favorite gift was her new house (Thanks Grandma and Grandpa) in which she spends a lot of time. Miah really likes her new laptop. Thanks to everyone who sent gifts for the kids. Their faces on Xmas morning were wonderfully happy.

I have recently returned from a trip to Australia on business. I spent a week in Melbourne and 3 days in Sidney. I preferred my time in Sydney and thought the waterfront was fantastic. I added some photos to the gallery. I have also added a few more pictures of Maria.
