Thanksgiving 2007

We visited Alabama for Thanksgiving. It had been a year since we were in Mobile last. The whole family had a lot to be thankful for, since last Thanksgiving we didn't think Dad would be here with us this Thanksgiving.

Wednesday, we boarded the dogs and waited to talk to the doctor before we could leave. Brent looked for us an alternate route on the internet since I-10 was closed betwen Lafayette and Baton Rouge. By the way 190 was a nightmare. Small towns and no food. That did not make for good traveling. We made it to Alabama late but safely.

Thursday, the whole family came to my Mom and Dad's. There was lots of eating and playing among the kids. It was great to see everyone and to be able to sit, relax, and visit.

Friday, we did go shopping but not early by any means. We just hit Babies-R-Us and a couple of other places. I have finally decided on the bedding and wanted everyone to see it. After that we visited Terry, Michelle, and Bo. Bo is so adorable. It was our first time to see him. Cullen was very good with him. He helped me give him a bottle and wiped his mouth. Then we spent a nice relaxing night eating steak and letting the family enjoy playing with Cullen.

Saturday, we headed out. We left Saturday because of traffic and me. I needed to get things ready for the next few weeks of work and school. Trip wasn't to bad coming home. We stopped off to visit Nana before heading on in. It was very late when we finally made it home.

It was a great Thanksgiving! We have so much to be thankful for.
