This year for Thanksgiving, we took our party of five on the road, 75 South all the way to Portal, Georgia, home of Mama! We have not been to Mama's house since the summertime, so we were excited to spend some time with this special lady. Wednesday morning, after baths, packing, and some play time we loaded up and headed south. Because it was a special day, Daddy's birthday (more to come on that later), we stopped along the way at one of his favorite places, BPS. Wednesday night we enjoyed a yummy supper of Chicken and Dumplin's, Mama style! With a tall glass of sweet tea, we were set for the rest of the week. Who needs a Thanksgiving dinner now? Not me! Thursday morning, David and Carter went out to the deer woods to see what they could see. Ask Carter when you see him what his favorite thing about this day was; you're sure to get a good laugh! You can learn more here about their outing. The girls and I stayed behind to help Mama get ready for the big day. I am ashamed to say I did not get a single picture of the goodness she prepared. It was delicious! You name it; we had it! Thank you, Mama, for a delicious Thanksgiving meal. We are so thankful for you. This morning, we headed back home in hopes of readying our house for Christmas. I'll let you know how we fare after the weekend!
Getting ready to sing to the birthday boy, not pictured! Let it be noted, for memory sake, that two of the green cupcakes ended up on my grandmother's white carpet! Yikes!
Our children love Curious George, so being the selfless man that he is, David picked out this fun cupcake with our favorite little monkey. It was a BIG hit! 
These are my sweet babies and my sister's girls. They had the most fun playing together at Mama's house this week! Happy Thanksgiving!
