Happy New Year


Good morning dear friends!

I just got our holiday photos developed and knew that you would laugh at this one!

New Year's Day was a cold and icy one which meant our little monkeys were cottage bound all the day long.

Molly and Mildred spent a good bit of the day reading in their rooms. Not only do they love to read, but it is sort of a way to get away from all the commotion that a cottage full of monkeys can bring!

Meg and Marie seemed a little restless and had gotten into a bit of trouble earlier in the day. Meg relentlessly teases the day lights out of Marie because....well....it is so easy! Morley got weary of their fighting and bickering and he told them they better find something quiet to do or else they would be spending the rest of the day in their rooms. May I say that this would be a "life sentence" for Meg so she immediately channeled her energy into a more creative behavior. She talked Murray and a few of the other monkeys into creating a play and they all disappeared into the basement to commence writing a play and practicing the production.

A few hours later, Morley, myself and all the rest of the troop were treated to "Father Time - A New Year's Play".

That is Murray in the top hat and diaper. He is such a good sport. Murray is so easy to get along with. Our Mitchell would rather give up bananas for a week then put on this 'get up'.

Well friends, I must get busy with my chores. I'll be looking for you to soon put your heads in at the Cottage At The End Of the Lane....you wouldn't want to miss a thing!

Love - Mabyn
