Thanksgiving

Dearest Angels~

Happy Thanksgiving little angels!  Grace, this is your very first Thanksgiving holiday!  Joshua, this wil be your third.  Your first was spent in the ICN (Intensive Care Nursey).  

Grace, you woke up at 4:30am.  You ended up sleeping next to me last night on a futon mattress.  Joshua, you slept with Gigi again and slept through the whole night!  :-)

We all got ready in the morning and then hit the road for Asheboro!  Before we left though, we saw (Great) Aunt Beth.  She came up this morning and started to make mashed potatoes with Gigi as we were leaving.  They were going to (Great) Uncle Laurence's house for lunch.

We got to Great Grandma's house around 11:30am.  We also saw Great Grandpa, Uncle James, Grandpa Jim, and (Great) Aunt Pops.  We had Thanksgiving Day lunch there .... there was so much good food.  I ate too much!  ;-)

Joshua, you found some toy cars and trains to play with.  Grace, you ate a whole container of food.  :-)  I nursed Grace and then she napped on Great Grandma as the rest of us went for a walk in the neighborhood. 

We left mid-afternoon and had to stop about 30 miles outside Cary to nurse Grace.  Boy were you screaming in the car little lady!  I guess we didn't time that right!  And, to top it off .... you bit me with your tooth!  I know you were just playing though.  Joshua, you fell asleep in your car seat.  :-P

We stopped by the house on the way home.  The floors look awesome!  It smells downstairs, but it looks great!  

 

We got back to Gigi's house by 6:20pm.  Two hours later, Gigi, (Great) Aunt Beth, Cousin Stephanie, and Cousin Charlie got there.  It was a packed house this evening!  The four of us spent the night in the rec room.  

We'll check on the house again tomorrow.  I'm hoping the smell will go down soon so we can move back in.  

Sleep tight you two!

I love you both!
