Time With Tammy

Do remember way back two years ago when the kids got their Melissa and Doug puppets from their grandmas? Those puppets have provided hours of entertainment for Marshall and Shaylen. We recently had our friend Tammy Detwiler at the house and the kids decided to put on a puppet show for her.

Tammy is in the states on deputation, trying to get back to Austria where she helps out the Hudsons. She is a gem and I know how valuable she is to Todd and Sarah. We were so thankful that Tammy made a small detour over to our house for a couple of days while she was in New England. Our kids fell in love with her when she was in town with the Hudsons last fall. It was a very short visit so we were thankful for the extended period of time to spend with her.

While she was here, we took a road trip over to the Nubble Light and braved the cold, wet elements to get a few pictures. The wind was blowing so hard I couldn't keep it off the camera lens and out of the kids' eyes. It made for some very funny pictures!

On Thursday evening, it started to snow! We couldn't believe that we were getting snow already in October, but Tammy liked it. I think it's neat that it's in this last picture with her. We threatened the Hudsons with not sending Tammy back and just keeping her here in New Hampshire all to ourselves, but they replied that there was no way that was going to happen, so we had to say goodbye. Pray that Tammy can raise all of her support soon so she can head back to Austria.
