North Carolina - Thanksgiving

I hope this works! I tried to do a collage. I wasn't sure how to move the photo's around so they got out of order. Oh well. We started our trip out helping Ryan and Starla move into their new house. The last photo should be the first. Scott is sleeping on the job. The washer needed to go up stairs. He was taking a break. Now go back to the top, it starts with Emma. Then we go to North Carolina. We went out to watch the kids so their parents could go play. We had so much fun. We pulled the girls out of school and headed to Virgina. We went to a civil war site. Appomattox Virgina. It was the place where General Grant and Lee made the treaty to end the war. Then we just saw lots of fun things. We drove the croaked road. (blue grass music is big all along the road). We went to Mt. Airy where The Andy Griffith show was filmed. I thought it was way cool. Kylie had no idea what the Andy Griffith show even was :) how sad.

When we returned home my Brother and his wife Marcy came to spend thanksgiving with us. It was so nice. It had been years since we had turkey dinner together. We prepared the dinner, then Stacie and Whit arrived home. So we all had dinner together. It was such a nice time.

The Friday after thanksgiving we loaded up and went to a tree farm and found the perfect Christmas tree. That was so much fun. We took a hay ride to the trees, past tobacco drying in a barn. This was the first Christmas tree we got to help pick with the kids since they moved to North Carolina. I'm so glad we got to be with them. It was really special. We had such a great visit.
