Matt in England

Matt has been in Ireland the last week. He attends a show, Phantom of the Opera, in a few hours in London, England. We miss him very much here. Joshua in particular seems more prone to upset and both of them refuse to sleep in their own beds. [sigh] Joshua simply must tuck his toes under something. I don't know why his toes must tuck under something, but they must. I am well reminded of when his toenails need trimming, I can tell you that.

We are off for a busy day today. Samantha is training for cross-country skiing season, so we will leave in a few minutes for that. I bring Tucker with me now, pretty much everywhere. Joshua comes too and we will walk on the edge of the golf course near the river and the trees. Lots to sniff for Tucker, and lots to explore for Joshua. Samantha will be running like mad the whole time. Then we get Dim sum at Great Wall in Bedford and head to Samantha's riding lesson. After that, I am hoping for a *peaceful* afternoon with a fire and maybe some s'mores. I said *peaceful* and hopefully, *quiet.*

I hope your days are all good too!
