Thanksgiving Week

Quinn gets the full week off for Thanksgiving which is really nice for both of us. On Tuesday we took Mae to the Waypoint Cafe at Camarillo Airport for lunch and to watch the planes.

The day before Thanksgiving getting as much done as I can.

Cranberry on China. This year I pulled out mom’s good china. The only picture I took on Thanksgiving — pathetic!

We usually do a family hike on Thanksgiving but the winds were so strong we couldn’t really go outside. In fact, many homes had their power cut off as a safety measure to prevent wind-related fires.

But we got out on Friday. Quinn hates it when Don walks to the edge. Sonic’s probably not too happy either.

Around Here in November

Quinn is starting to accumulate hats with each trip to the mall with friends.

Quinn is crushing it in Honors Algebra this year. We always told him he was good at math and now he’s really feeling it.

He has these grid sticky notes for drawing graphs in math but they are frequently used for something else.

Gruyere and Pear still life.

Mae’s condo is across the street from Quinn’s middle school and once a week he walks over there after school. On this day they visited Larry the llama and gave him a treat. Mae gave him that shirt for his birthday so now Quinn calls it Grandma’s Shirt.

We are coming to an end with all of the structural issues at our new rental condo. This is before the repair.

Balcony rebuild. Outside and In. This also requires me to spend alot of time in the city permit office. Fortunately they are very nice and the permits were a breeze.

Don recently got promoted and moved into a new office with a view.

Sit and he will come.

Lovely sunset view over our neighborhood.
