Family Hike

On Sunday it was a beautiful day to get out for a walk.  Sonic definitely needed some outdoor leash free time.
Quinn practicing his TaeKwonDo forms.  

Thousands of crows fly west to east every day at dusk over our neighborhood and every morning they fly west.

Down at our \”Skate Park\”.

A cute video of Quinn & Sonic getting their some of their energy out.   Happy kid and happy dog!

Thanksgiving Week

Pictures from our Thanksgiving week.  This year Don took Quinn to Chicago and I went solo to to Maryland to visit Mom and Pam (and family).
I flew in to Baltimore over the bay and the light was pretty amazing.  

I got Quinn some e-touch gloves to keep his hands warm while using the ipad.  He was pretty stoked about using them.

Quinn\’s favorite part of the day was the submarine.

Don couldn\’t leave Chicago without a couple of fully loaded Chicago Dogs!

Don and Quinn reflected in The Bean in downtown Chicago.  Corky is casually strolling behind them.

Then it was on to Mae\’s and a visit to the Shedd Aquarium.

Don got some special World Series Championship Chicago Cubs gear.

And back in Maryland I was hanging with mom.  Here we are getting ready to go out for a walk.

Mom & I spent Thanksgiving with Pam & Family.   Here they are working hard on dinner.

And Ben waving me off telling me not to take a picture 🙂

We all flew home on Friday and it was nice to have the weekend together before it was back to work and school.  It was a cool and rainy weekend so a perfect time for a cozy fire.

And of course we had to cook our own Thanksgiving meal.   We are all so thankful for the time we got to spend with our families and now happy to be home together.

After dinner it was time for a long, hot soak.

Beach Day

Everything is better at the beach.  And after a very crappy election week it was great to go to the beach and relax.  And have fun.  And watch all the kids get along and entertain themselves without devices.

Quinn getting out there.

He came back to tell me that the waves were SO RAD that he got knocked down 4 times in 1 minute.

They had their ears open for the ice cream truck!

Do you see the 2 \”rainbows\” on either side of the sun?  Pretty spectacular.

And a glorious end to a perfect day.
