Thanksgiving

We got back Friday from a week at Grandma and Papa O's house and had a great time for Thanksgiving. We packed in a lot during the week- a suprise 30th birthday party for Ben, viewing the Festival of Lights, going to the Milwaukee Wiener Shop, haircuts for Cooper and Papa, an afternoon for the girls to get our nails done, some Black Friday shopping, Wii Mario Kart races, Christmas gift exchange, and lots of family time. Thankfully all our flights went on time as scheduled with no major issues. Whew.

I leave again tomorrow for a week of work related travel including year end reviews for my territory of South Carolina and Charlotte, NC. Having been out of the office for a week I feel less than prepared for it, but I will be by Thursday. And, once this is done no more work travel until March 2009!

Some pictures from the week:
