Had a cute waiter bring us pizza.
We bought a new toy...well, it's supposed to be a yard tool...

It's her personal amusement park.
TEACHERS GONE WILD!!
We all went to the ACSI Convention.
The early morning metro ride was just...
part of the fun...
One teacher got to take his librarian wife!!
Diane and I had the party room...chocolate & Zinfindel
It probably would have helped to bring a good corkscrew. The workshops were not as much fun as the fellowship.
A picture is worth 1000 words....some will read this one well!!

Family and close friends are reasons to give Thanks.
