Lucy and me in Portland at Thanksgiving.

One of the perks of being an expat are long vacations 'home'. I had great intentions of posting a picture a week of all the adventures of being back in the States, but the adventures took over, including a terrible bout of strep throat, so I am just now weeding through the many pictures trying to decide which ones will give an overview of the many memorable moments of the holidays. Stay tuned if you are interested in seeing what may show up.
