Thankful

We have much to be thankful for, like this guy...


And this guy is thankful that Mom is making whipped cream for the pumpkin pie!


Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

You Talkin' to Me?

This picture cracks me up - he really looks like he is thinking "What, Mom?". Actually his is thinking "When are you going go give me another bit of that granola bar?". Cutie pie.

This next shot is us on Roosevelt Island overlooking Georgetown. We had a nice outing on Sunday - the weather was gorgeous and warm. It was actually much to warm for the fleece I was wearing, but not too warm for the monkey hat... of course.

Nan and Pop come for Thanksgiving fun tomorrow!

Happy Birthday Grandma!

Yesterday was Grandma's Birthday. O got her some nice flowers in the morning before she and Grandpa left to go home to PA.

O had a great time with Grandma and Grandpa over the week while I was gone. He is all better now, we are thinking about heading out for a little bit of a hike today to enjoy the beautiful weather. Maybe we will head over to Roosevelt Island. I have been wanting to check that out for a while now.

I got my Thanksgiving shopping done yesterday, for which I am thankful since I don't want to be anywhere near the commissary on Wednesday!

Panama

Panama has been very interesting. I learned a lot on this trip about the canal operations and the ongoing expansion project. Panama is also a beautiful tropical place. I am looking forward to coming back again and maybe taking a day to explore. The hotel was right on the canal with a view of the Bridge of the Americas (one of two bridges connecting North America and South America across the Panama Canal.

Here is a photo of the bridge and one of a ship outbound towards the Pacific:






We went to dinner last night at the Miraflores Locks. It is pretty impresssive to see huge vessels in the locks. I will put pictures of it up when I get home (I am in the airport).




I can't wait to get home and see my little guy - I miss him!

Panama

I arrived in Panama tonight. Iwill be here through Thursday for work. I miss my guys already.

We had visitors in town over the long weekend. Grandma and Jennifer and Jenna came to see us. We had a fun day on Saturday touring the Capitol building and the U.S. Botanical gardens. I think I got some good shots on the tour, I will get some pictures up when I get back home.

In other news O has been a little sick again, but he is on the mend under Dad and Grandma's care at home and some medicine.
