I have always celebrated Thanksgiving at either my parent's house or Gus's parent's house. So, I was a little nervous about Thanksgiving this year. I honestly thought I would have a couple nervous breakdowns without my family nearby, but it turned out just fine.
We drove down to Richmond and spent the day with Gus's Aunt Patty, Uncle Glen, and cousin Amy. Also in attendance was KA, MJ, Jake, and their friend Laura. We had a great time with everyone. We talked, chased Lilly around the house, ate delicious food, chased Lilly around the house more, played the player piano, tried to keep Lilly's hands off the gingerbread house, and played cards while Aunt Patty played with Lilly (thank you so much Aunt Patty!). Gus's Grandpa "Pop Pop" and his wife Betty Sue even came over later for a little pie. It was wonderful.

All day MJ tried to make Lilly say her name. When we ask her to say MJ she says, "KA".
Lilly LOVED Pop Pop. When he got there Lilly followed him around the house yelling, "Pop Pop", and wanted to show him everything.

I am SO GLAD you had some family out there or it could have been quite depressing. And to think, all that excitement when you are most likely pregnant.
Glad you had a wonderful time.
