Happy Thanksgiving!

Over Thanksgiving break we took a trip up to North Carolina. We had a wonderful visit with the Smiths and lucky for us the weather was almost as beautiful as Becky & Thad's land. It was a very cozy, relaxing and fun couple of days! We got to help Hannie decorate her brown paper American Indian vest, bake/cook/eat, visit, put out corn for the dear, play horse shoes, enjoy the awesome autum view from their deck and after the kids went to bed one night we played a hilarious game of Trivial Pursuit 90s edition!! :) Thanksgiving morning Jared went for a run through the countryside and then went out hunting with Thad that evening. Hannah & Ben especially enjoyed all the love and cuddles from their Aunt and Uncle. The day after Thanksgiving we drove through/checked out a few nearby cities and on our way home we were able to visit with Judie & Tim for a bit. Hannah had a lot of fun playing with Mickey dog and it was great to see the Laferrieres...we were only sorry we couldn't have stayed longer.
Here's one of our favorite pics from the trip...Hope you all had a happy "Turkey Day!" :)

Sadly, even Jared's most advanced chiropractic techniques couldn't help the bird.

Glad you all had a nice thanksgiving. It's been fun reading up on your family's adventures.

The apron is a nice touch. Kind of reminds me of the hunted turkey you refused to gut, and had to bribe Josh to do it with the promise of a leg and attached tendon (the turkey's).
On your hunting trip were you out for game, or voters for Ron Paul ;)
