Happy Birthday!!

[sarah and hicham 3]

I feel like I have missed so much, but don't worry I am catching up.

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving weekend. I was with my family playing golf and getting a Christmas tree. Hicham and I also got a small one for our appartment and he chose a statue of liberty ornament to add to the tree.

Happy Birthday Kelly

Have a good day everyone!

Charles, your weather must be heading my way! Our forecast: hi of 79 today/tomorrow, hi of 76 Thurs, hi of 55 on Fri/Sat. Today, however, I'm enjoying the lovely weather on the new scooter and and unfortunately slow day at work. I'm *glad* not to be snowed in... but I wouldn't mind being somewhere else!

Charles: Happy to see you bright and early. So are you working by day and honey mooning by night??

pretty much. we had the honeymoon in brazil anyways

speaking of weather, we got a doozy of a storm heading this way. gonna be 72 today, a high of 28 tomorrow

That is probably the storm that just passed through here early this morning. It didn't snow as much as I thought it would, but it is nippy outside! Prepare to cuddle tight tonight with Nessa! <hehe>

that is a huge statue in rio. it's a jesus statue hundreds of feet tall (well it looks hundreds of feet tall). exactly what the smileys are doing in the pic i dunno, but nessa and i went to that statue while we were in rio for her interview. i'll see if i can find some more specifics on the statue on wikipedia

edit to add:

Christ the Redeemer (Portuguese: Cristo Redentor) is a large Art Deco-style statue of Jesus Christ in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The statue stands 38 m (125 feet) tall and is located at the peak of the 710-m (2330-foot) Corcovado mountain in the Tijuca Forest National Park, overlooking the city.

As well as being a potent symbol of Christianity, the statue has become an icon of the city, its open arms seen by many as a testament to the warmth of the Brazilian people.

The monument was inaugurated on October 12, 1931, by president Getúlio Vargas in a large, lavish ceremony.
