Thanksgiving

We had such a wonderful Thanksgiving! We took our first long road trip with Ruby to Pinehurst, NC to Dave and Toni's beautiful home. Ruby was beyond ecstatic to see her cousins Andy, Emily, Luke and Evan. Every day for about 3 weeks before we left, she wanted to hear about our trip to see her cousins. She was a trooper for the car ride, we broke it up to two days and she LOVED staying over night at the hotel. Of course the DVD player we bought for the car was a hit. The cousins hit it off and played together very well and the adults had a great time too. We had a fun visit from Stephen and Stephanie - Ruby was a little shy with Uncle Stephen and his big beard at first but warmed up and actually fell asleep for the night to one of his new slower songs. We then had a jam session out on the porch with singing, music and dancing. Great times!

This is a short update for now but I will do a new one next week. Love to all!




We're on our way!


Ahh! 2 hours of glorious nap!

This was very sweet. Story time before bed.

Ummm, I didn't mean Rubes and Stephen bathing. I meant those things listed separately...
