We had such a good time in Arkansas.  There is always someone for the kids to play with and tons of delicious food and plenty of laughs.  We were having a great time, but unfortunately there was a fever virus going around our family and with so many kids it took forever to stop.  Poor Maggie just could not get over it though. She was sick majority of the time that we were out there and then on David’s birthday on the 28th she got worse.  We were planning on staying until about January 2nd, but ended up heading back and driving straight through on New Year’s Day.  On New Year’s Eve we were all kind of lame. We were at the Torgerson’s since we would be heading out early in the morning we went to bed pretty early…well at least David did. I think he was in bed by 9:00 that night and then the girl’s and I stayed up talking and rang in the new year laughing and talking.  We got home and Maggie was still sick, so we took her to the doctor and it turned out she had pneumonia. Poor girl. Sad smile  She  was such a trooper the whole trip.  It’s a rare thing for us to have a trip home without one of the kids getting sick.  Here’s hoping for our next one.
