We traveled to Knoxville, TN for Thanksgiving this year to celebrate with Bob Markli (my moms new hubby). We had a really fun weekend. Kyle, Nathan and Dallin did great on the drive up. Thank goodness for DVD players. Dan had just got his early Christmas gift (the Nikon D200 camera). So he was in an exceptional mood. He has since them named 'her' D2.
Thanksgiving was really good. My favorite this year was the turkey. It was super moist and so flavorful (usually I lean towards the mashed potatoes and gravy). All of Bob's kids came over on Thanksgiving day and it was good to meet them. He has 3 girls and 1 boy. I think the highlight of Kyle and Nathan's trip was playing hide and seek with Ginger (Bob's 14 yr daughter) and Todd and Dan. Bob has a big house with lots of fun hiding places.
Dan had a blast breaking in his new camera and taking lots of pictures (as always). He also got to ride Bob's motorcycle and go shooting with his huge gun collection. Dan's dad use to take him shooting quite often. Bob and Todd were quite impressed with his 'skills.' Those cans didn't stand a chance!!
My mom and grandma and I were out the door by 6:30am for the day after Thanksgiving shopping. We got some great deals... of course. We laughed so hard together and had a blast.
On Saturday Bob showed us some of the beautiful homes he is building. Kyle and Nathan had fun climbing on the dirt mounds at the construction sites.
Hope everyone had a yummy Thanksgiving and enjoyed being around family.
