We're blessed to have family only 2 hours away. This year we were so glad to be able to spend Thanksgiving with Waylon's cousin Amber (and Zach and Bella), in Louisville. The kids were looking forward to it for a while. I don't want to forget the random questions that Ryan asked about Amber before we went to her house....
- Can Amber talk?
- Does her cat talk?
- Does Amber have a dinosaur potty?
- What color is she?
We stayed up way too late Wednesday night playing Apples to Apples. I woke up to the smell of the meat cooking outside in the smoker. Waylon and the kids were all up, and I feel back asleep, and slept in late for the first time in years. We cooked some awesome food - a little different from the traditional Thanksgiving meal at Granny's house - but it was really good. I've discovered that weight watchers has some awesome recipes that don't taste like cardboard after all....I'm gonna try to add some of them to our menus now.
After all the fun, we left, going the back home a way that Waylon had his heart set on. He was wanting to take the backroads all the way back to Cincinnati - but a storm ruined our plans and we headed for the interstate as soon as we could.
So that was our Thanksgiving - fun times, fellowship, and some great food! I'm so enjoying this relaxing 4 day weekend!!
