Thanksgiving

We had a lovely Thanksgiving break this year. We drove to Arkansas and the kids get 5 stars for the drive, they were amazing. Brooke had zero accidents (we sure are lucky she doesn't mind going on the side of the road like her mama :). Once we got to Little Rock it was busy, busy, busy spending time with family and eating great food. 

At night Grandpa read stories to the kids. 


And of course Yoga with Grandma. 




The spread. Our old pool table doubled nicely as a large serving table for everyone. 


The food this year was pretty amazing. 


Grandma let the kids build her a fairy garden for her backyard. The kids had a great time. 



Other highlights were going to the movies with Grandma and Grandpa, playing games with cousins and late nights with siblings, running outside in Maumelle (one of my favorite running spots), watching the rain, and having Aaron home with us all the time. 

Then it was time to make the drive back home. Again the kids did great until about the last 30 minutes (always right!). We were worn out and happy to be home but we had a great trip. The kids had been counting down the days to go and so sad that we had to leave. We sure are grateful for such a fun family.
