We just returned yesterday from visiting my brother Mike and his family for the Thanksgiving weekend in Richmond, VA. It was a pretty fun trip. They live in the country so the kids were able to hike down by the river and spend time with their cousins. Tina's mom joined us and my mom was there as well. 
Mike's son, Mike was in from West Virginia University and much to our surprise he was sporting an eyebrow piercing. Based on the jovial ribbing and endless questions, we're confident that we won't be seeing it at our next visit. We were equally successful getting Matt to cut his hair last summer. He didn't appreciate us calling him "Farrah" all the time. I guess this is foreshadowing of what we can look forward to in a few years.

November for us was pretty quiet. I had a trip out to LA and got to visit my sister and family as well as a good friend prior to my meetings. The kids didn't have sports so we weren't running around everywhere. December travel will be light as well.
The interior trim and painting was finally completed... just in time for the new roof in December. This was definitely the year of the home repair. All I can say is that we're doing our part to keep the economy rolling, but not entirely by choice.
The Christmas tree is up and lights are decorating the inside. After the roof is completed, we'll get to the outside.

Sounds like good times were had by all- especially Mike. I think the brow-ring is cute! I love that you got to be with both of your moms. The house looks so festive too- you two are really on top of it this year...calendar pages too?
