We have finally succombed to the pressures of the google age and have created a family blog. We hope this new venue for our "weekly" newsletter, TWITS, will make it easy for us to share our lives with family and friends despite the oceans and continents that separate us.
For those new to TWITS, it is the weekly email we started sending out in 2003 while living in Tanzania. The acronym stands for "This Week in the Smiths" and also alludes to some of our favorite Roald Dahl characters. Some of our children have also been labeled twits, too. While it's not always weekly, we've tried to keep it regular. We mostly write it for ourselves as a family journal, so even if nobody reads it, it's not a total waste.
The URL (mamaduckfarm.blogspot.com) comes from Stacey's budding home industry. The Farm currently includes production and sale of Mama Duck Ice Cream, the raising and schooling of our four ducklings, and an organic Western garden in Central Africa. We hope to add more to our Mama Duck Enterprise, but we're taking one step at a time. The Blog just seemed to be the next step.
Feel free to make comments - and please reciprocate by keeping us informed of the things you do.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
The Smiths

Hi Jeff and Stacey,
We arrived in Estes last night. We unloaded the van with temperatures in the mid 30s. It actually felt warmer than when we loaded the van in Houston in the mid 40s.
We got up at 6am to go down to Littleton to be present at stake conference when Mel was released. It was quite touching.
Yes, please let us know when a new "letter" appears on your blog.
Mom & Dad
