Blog Rampage 3

Thanksgiving week is a relaxing time around the Federal government. Everyone takes time off and most people who stay don't do anything (to be fair, I should say they do even less than normal).

Nathaniel took some time during work to capture some pictures from inside his building. Those these are not the best views in the building, they are views that he sees almost every day. Sometimes he sits back (or walks back, as it were) and reflects on the magnitude of it all. Other times, he just keeps walking towards the bathroom.

But you get the picture :)


This is the view from one of Nathaniel's co-workers windows looking to the left...


...and looking the other direction you see the National Air and Space Museum...


...and walking to the bathroom you see the Capitol building (no comments from the peanut gallery please)...


...and from a conference room where Nathaniel sometimes has meetings you can see the Washington monument! What a daily dose of D.C. Nathaniel gets every day!


Christmas morning Cristy decided to wake us up around 7 AM to open presents. For those of you who think we are "rich," please note that Nathaniel received his stocking candy in a snow boot. Also note that this was Nathaniel's best attempt at smiling--the less happy pictures were rejected due to lack of Christmas spirit.


Grandma Campbell's muffins are a yearly treat for the Burke Moreira family. Thanks Grandma Campbell (and all the Moms who passed this recipe on down the family tree!) Merry Belated Christmas!

Next up: The Washington DC Temple Festival of Lights with the Burke Moreiras!

The Rolls look perfect - good job Cristy. Nice view of DC - My view some mornings at work involve wild life - deer, elk and yak with the random squirrel and chipmunk running across the road. On another note - Didn't you promise me some pictures?
