A Lovely Winter Night

All is quiet here! Wonderful. What a great night to do
something exciting. Nah! I think I will sit here
and look at the tree and enjoy the warming fire.
Yes, I think I will!






Yep, the decision is final!

Time for Thanksgiving!!!!

What a great time of year! Thanksgiving!! So much
to be thankful for, Count them all! We started by having
a Thanksgiving meal at school. Boy was it good!
The kids had a great time.




Some of my little Indians!


Finishing up a great meal!



Then at our home, we had our own little Thanksgiving
meal. My wife did a fantastic job preparing this turkey
for all of us.





Preparing to eat!


We had a slight smoke problem after spilling some of
the turkey juice in the oven, oops!


One of the twins preparing the table, one of them,
you pick which one.


Even Copper was allowed some leftovers on
Thanksgiving day!

Overlooking the back part of the resort from our balcony.


The wonderful pool at night.


Market 28! Worth the whole trip. We had such an
enjoyable time here shopping and bartering for
our wares. So much fun! I would go back just for
this part of the trip.




Taken professionally by me in the dining room area.


Two pictures of beauty - the beach and my wife!





Some other beautiful resorts.

Vacation Time!!





Why the huge smiles you ask? Do you remember the post about dangling toes in the bathtub or dipping them in the blue water of Cancun? Well so many people thought that we should go to Cancun, so guess what, we are on our way!!! YES! Thank you so much for voting in our unscientific vote, without you, this would still be possible. More to come later.

A Day at the Zoo

Today we took the kids from school to the Columbus Zoo!
It was a cool, brisk day, but we had a lot of fun and got to take some
good pictures of the animals. Absolutely incredible! I love animals
and their beauty. Just gorgeous! I loved it more than the kids.
But that is me, young kid in an old's man body! Here are some
of my favorite from the day.
