Thanksgiving and more

Hi All,
Well as most of you know Thanksgiving was this past Thursday and there is a lot to talk about so let's get started.

Last weekend my nephew had his 2nd birthday and he celebrated it at an indoor water slide park. Jillian and I did not get to join in the festivities, but heard it was a great great time with only a small upset. Jillian's Mum slipped on wet pavement and broke her arm. She now has a cast going up past her elbow. But she is holding up like a trooper and keeping a smile on that dial.

At my workplace we have an art gallery in front of our studio and the first Thursday of every month art galleries in Seattle are open to the public. My workplace is a part of this and on December 3rd we are having an art show showing work of Jared Nickerson. I have been doing a lot of work on the upcoming show, re-painting walls, painting murals on the wall (his work not mine), printing out his work boarding it and so on and so forth. So as you can tell it has been quite busy. here is a sample of what I have been doing. The show is this Thursday, there is much to do still and it is all very exciting.



The Thursday just past was Thanksgiving and Jillian and I had 4 days off together. Thursday through to Sunday. We had a great time we went and saw two movies. One which we loved "Blindside". I skated twice. Jillian got to go shopping and we had an awesome thanksgiving dinner with Jillian's immediate family and a few extended families. Making the festivities all the better. With great food, games, more food and many laughs.
Here is the pic or two of the festivities. I even baked cookies !! But the Prize for best chef must go to Jillian and her sisters as they put most of it together.














After a great Thanksgiving we still had 3 days free. So on Friday I decided to make dinner for Jillian, her parents, Kevin and Christy. I made chicken terriyaki with veggies and I made it completely by myself. It was quite delicious if I do say so myself.

We hung out with the family over the weekend a lot, it was a great weekend. Maybe whistler this weekend may compare.

Well I hope this catches you all doing well.
Matty
