i come from the land of the ice and snow

So we spent a week back in Wisconsin over New Year's seeing friends and family. Faithful Wisconsin readers who we didn't get to see - sorry! It was a fast trip, and there's only so many hours in the day. We still love you all.

Cassidy did really well - he handled the plane flights, the strange environments, the new faces, and the disruptions to his schedule with very little crying or whining (less than Holly and me). He did agree with us that the weather in Wisconsin in January is highly suboptimal, and now has a better appreciation for San Francisco's 50-degree Decembers.

We have lots of photos, so I'll break them into a few installments. In this batch, our young hero can be seen meeting his new friend Tigger, enjoying toys and presents with Grandma Sonnie and Grandpa Chris, and showing his general disdain for winter clothing.
