Holidays! (Part I)

Happy New Year! I can't beleive it has been 6 months since I have moved to Georgia! This are going well, but of course we are still adjusting to the new jobs, new area and new weather.
We really enjoyed the fall. And the changing colors. Pictures can't shown how beautiful the Atlanta area was with the bright fall colors.

This is our street

We spent the holidays with friends and family.
For Thanksgiving our dear friends Greg and Linda Tomko spent a long weekend. We had a good time showing them the area, hiking and spending time together.

From here you could see downtown Atlanta

Another hike at Lake Lanier

Thanksgiving day we invited Jim's co-worker Daniel and his family.

Daniel, Julie, Rachel and Emily - their first American Thanksgiving.

They recently came to Atlanta from Korea and were experiencing their first US thanksgiving. We made that traditional meal and they said "Wow, it looks like the cinema". Linda and I were able to coordinate cooking together even though the kitchen here is room for one only!

After dinner we took a walk around the neighborhood.



Out for a walk

 Eric was here for the holiday but left on Friday. He was deployed to Kuwait on Monday, Nov. 28th.
