Tonight's picture was taken in November of 2006. Mattie was four years old and doing one of the things he enjoyed to do.... paint things on the floor of our dining room. Sometimes Mattie would do hand and foot prints there and other times he would build wooden models and paint them. As you can see he built a dinosaur and was painting it that day. Mattie was always eager to take on a building project and to create! He could do all these activities for hours. Then he would incorporate his creations into his play schemes. Mattie was never boring.

The Los Angeles International Airport is ALL decked out for Christmas! There was this beautiful tree in the middle of the American Airlines terminal, there was Christmas music playing all over the airport, and what caught my attention was up over my head..... where the flags in this picture are located.
A wonderful toy Christmas Train was chugging along. It was moving overhead, all around the perimeter of the tree! The train made choo choo sounds and I know if Mattie were with us, this train would have been very exciting to see!
Here is a close up of the train. Got to love the little polar bear sitting on top of the car in the back.
We went from sunshine this morning in LA, to grayness and rain in DC. However, after a week away in which we celebrated Thanksgiving and my mom's milestone birthday, we can say that we are safely back in DC after a successful trip.
