This year we drove to Papa and Rhonda's house for Thanksgiving. The kids were good on the long, boring drive to Houston. They played on our ipads occasionally.

We had a nice visit and it was so good to see my dad in person. Wish I could just zap myself there more often.

The children had fun talking to Papa and Rhonda. On Thanksgiving morning when I was drying Hailey's hair she thought the red towel on her made her look like a queen. She decided she needed a crown so when we were done she got out her travel bag and whipped up a crown for herself. She also fitted Rhonda one and Flower her bunny.

Hunter was fascinated by the Macy's Day parade and Hailey enjoyed playing with the cool sticker sheets that Rhonda had for all the kid guests.

The food was good. Rhonda invited her dad and lots of her friends to join in on the Thanks!

Here is the placemat Hailey made for herself...

We also had the pleasure of going to TWO movies in a row with them. We saw Tangled and the latest Harry Potter movie. I thought they were both fantastic.

Of course no trip is complete without some good ole throwing up. This time it WASN'T our little miss Hailey!!! I was so proud of her for eating her meal - even a large chunk of turkey. Hunter woke up on the day we were leaving not feeling so well and food wasn't in his plans. Come to find out later that night he had double ear infections which caused him to throw up. Thankfully I snagged 2 trash bags for our trip home. They were put to good use :)

I had my dad pose for a quick picture in front of his restored truck. It sure is pretty. Hunter enjoyed getting to sit in it with Papa while Brady and him were starting it up.

I am glad I got to spend Thanksgiving with them and I really enjoyed looking through dad's old keepsakes in search of a document for him. Lots of good stuff!!!
