Thanksgiving was a blast!

Sorry it's taken so long to get the pictures up from our visit north. It's been crazy since well Halloween! We've installed flooring in two bedrooms
(her room with new floor)

and drove to Atlanta and back and put up our Christmas decorations! I actually finished yesterday! And now the Bricks are in town so tonight we are going to EPCOT to see the Candlelight Procession! Thankfully the weather is great!

So we left the Tuesday before Thanksgiving for Grandma and Grandpa's house! Was nice to break up the drive up into two parts! Robyn had lots of fun playing with their fun trains and hanging with Grandma! I think she had the most fun playing/torturing Chessie their cat! He is such a sweetie and just kept running off! She kept asking? Where's Kitty? Where's Kitty?!
Hanging with Moppa

and Anma

We left the next morning to drive to Aunt Suzanne's. Traffic was fine until just 10miles from her exit. Errrt. Traffic was stopped, so thanks to the GPS we did a detour (Robyn slept thru it!) and got to her house in reasonable time. Actually took us less time to get to McDonough, GA from Pavo then it took Aunt Nancy to get there from Roswell!! Day before TK day traffic was horrific! That evening we were to celebrate Christmas together!
Robyn LOVED opening her presents.. of course.. and then assisting everyone else with theirs!
Love the tongue hanging out!

For thanksgiving we spent the morning watching the boys take care of Aunt Suzanne's yard. Wow they did an awesome job! Robyn had a blast playing the piles of leaves and hanging with the boys!

and Sam

Then we had over 30 people for Thanksgiving. Man there was tons and food and it was great to be around family all day! Robyn had a blast hanging out with her cousin Ryleigh! Those two girls were connected at the hip all afternoon! So very cute!

With Ryliegh!!

Yummy food with Daddy!

Friday we hung out some, had lunch with Thomas and his awesome girlfriend (hope he marrys her. She's cool!). We took Thomas and Brandy to the airport and had to exchange the rental car/van we had. Zack informed us that the tags were expired! So we got another van, nicer I think, and Aunt Suzanne hung out with Robyn while we got to go see the new Muppet movie. It was fun! Cute movie too!

Then Saturday, DAvid had to run back to the airport (we left our sunpass in the other car).. while I packed the car for our trip home. Robyn did pretty well for the long drive. We met my mom at a playground in Valdosta and then headed home. All in all she did great! She slept on a make-shift bed we had at Aunt Suzanne's and well.. she loved all the extra attention and we loved being around family. Can't wait till we move north so we can be closer to everyone. economy.. please pick up soon!

So there ya go. Will get some Christmas pictures up soon.. as soon as I take some. Got a new camera and I'm still trying to get used to it! Here are a few more pictures from up north and around.
so cute!
