Thanksgiving

I have so much to be thankful for! I have a WONDERFUL family, great friends, good job, good health and most of all, an amazing God!

I am writing this as we are on our way home from a QUICK trip to st. Louis to see my dads side of the family. (I have never posted from my phone, so I am not sure how this will turn out.) Kendall and I left Tuesday morning with my parents to go to granny and pa's. Brandon had to work all day Wednesday, since it is a 12 hour car ride, we had to go without him. Shane, Michelle and he kids were going to meet us there so that we could all be together. Shane called on Wednesday and said that Aisley had been throwing up all day so Michelle was going to stay home with her and he would bring Addison and Knox.

We get to he hotel about 10:30 Wednesday night and go straight to bed. We all get up yesterday morning and head to granny and pa's house so that they can see he kids, and the kids could see aunt Sue, Renee, Greg and cousin Dylan. We had a wonderful lunch...and birthday cake for the best mom ever! The kids played, the adults napped and watched football.

About 5 o'clock we all get ready to head back to the hotel. I was going to branch out and do a little black Friday shopping. (B really wanted this tv from best buy) while trying to get all the kids to sleep so mom and I could go, Addison starts throwing up. One thing led to another and a few hours later, Knox woke up sick, then Shane. Boy do I feel sorry for the housekeeping crew at that hotel!! We ended up with 3 seperate hotel rooms-pretty much one for each kid. Instead of passing all he germs on to everyone else, we decided to pack up and leave a couple days early.

We are now on our way back home and have about 2 hours left.
