10 on 10 December - not....
I didn't have a photo op day today - the day started off early with a 6 month teeth cleaning, then off to the bank, Staples, Target, a 1:00 meeting at work with a health insurance broker, QFC, Bartell's, back home for a lengthy phone conversation with another broker, invoicing work, and it's now 7:30 pm and I just finished eating pizza while watching an online episode of Glee... Geesh!
But I do want to share this photo. Does anyone know what kind of bird it is? On Wednesday I heard several thumps at our front door which caused our dog Louie to run down the hall to his hiding place in our bedroom closet.... When I opened the door, this bird was on our front deck. I quickly ran to grab my camera. He tried to fly into our living room windows, but finally flew off into a tree. I'm guessing that it looked awfully bright & warm in our house, or that he was hungry.

A surprise birthday party last weekend was a success for this gal. At this point, she doesn't know that she's having a party at her place.

Here are the guys getting ready to cook and make a gigantic delicious salad
Oh, the food and the wine:

It was a wonderful Thanksgiving - Joe & our neighbor Richard were each deep frying turkeys for their families. Once two birds were ready we headed to our daughter's brother & sister in law's for a feast of good food, good company, and plenty of entertainment. We missed our son & his girlfriend who celebrated Thanksgiving in Mexico (a tradition we used to do when the kids were younger).
Here's Wesley with his 1st turkey drumstick and his first Lime Fluff made by his Great Aunt Rhoda:

10 on 10 November
We have 2 french businessmen staying with us as they attend this week's Aerospace Convention at the Seattle Convention Center. This is Dominique. It's his very 1st visit to the United States.
This is our friend Jacques, and his 3rd visit to our place. We're hoping to attend his big 50th birthday party in France next spring.
Here's Norbert, he's french American, and runs the show. He's our good friend:
In the evening we all attended a reception at TheRed Barn of the Museum of Flight:
Me and the frenchies:
This was really interesting to me as it's the opening payroll and general ledger entries of the Boeing Company in 1916 (the year my father was born). The opening capital of the company was $100,000.00, which was a lot of money back then. William Boeing owned 98% of the shares.
During the day I made of a batch of chocolate chip cookie dough to bake tomorrow for our 2 guests to take bake to their families. They have croissants and tarts, etc. in France, but they don't have chocolate chip cookies (not even chocolate chips)!
