Thanksgiving Travels

The holidays and cars don't seem to mix in our house. A few days before Thanksgiving I had a run in with a deer. It completely messed up my car. How much more can my poor Mazda endure....I think I should not ask that question.......

We wanted to go home to VA and at the last minute we found a van to rent so we could all go together. Look at these happy faces! They were loving this ride...We had so much fun getting to spend a few days at Grandma and Grandpa's house. Uncle Mark was able to come from PA to join in the fun as well. Thanksgiving dinner was even more special because it was shared with our family.
I couldn't even fit it all on the plate. Where is my cranberry sauce and the incredible rolls that Mom and I made. Lets just say that it was some of the best cooking ever this year.

We held to tradition and decorated the Christmas tree for Grandma and Grandpa. This is one of my favorite things to do. Most of all of the decorations are so filled with my childhood memories. They are all homemade or have been made by others to go on the tree. Each ornament has a story.
After we decorated, Uncle Mark got out his guitar and we sang Christmas carols. It was so much fun. Then Uncle Mark gave us a concert. He is amazing!

Our trip came to an end too soon. Saying goodbye is never an easy thing to do......Thanks for the wonderful Thanksgiving memories. We will treasure them forever.
