Wish you were here...

The weather has been unseasonably warm but, Austin is still Austin. It's beautiful and full of life and, we actually received our first real snap of cold weather this week. The Christmas decorations are up down town and they lit the tree at the Capital.

How's life in Tennessee? Are you making friends? I'm sure you are; you're such a likeable guy. Are you handling the cold weather okay? I'm sure it's quite an adjustment from our steady 80 degree year round minimum temperatures.

Well, I have to say we sure do miss you. It's just not the same around here without you. We really have tried but frankly, we're not handling your absence all that well. The boys put on a brave face and a good show for most of the season but as the end grew near they just got all choked up. A lot of us have put on the old home movies from our fantastic trip to California last January to attempt to make ourselves feel better. We really did have fun on that trip, didn't we? Ahhh, those were the days. Alright, well please write when you have time. We hope you'll get a few days to come visit at Christmas. Remember to wear a hat when you go outside and play nice with other boys.

Love you,
Your Longhorn Family
