Thanksgiving

What a wonderful Thanksgiving. We headed down to Dothan on Wednesday night. We got lucky with traffic because we left later, but decided after listening to Nolan cry on and off the whole way that never again will we travel at night...at least not for awhile. Poor Nolan just wanted to roll over and lay on his tummy. We made it to Dothan in 4 hours though which hasn't happened in a long time.

Thursday we spent the day at my Mom and Dad's playing and helping my Mom cook. My sister Jamie and her family came for dinner along with my Aunt Teresa, her husband and 2 of her grand kids. I can't remember the last time I saw my aunt so it was really nice to see her. It was a great dinner. My mom made her cornbread dressing...one word...YUMMY!

Friday I went and ate lunch with some old friends from High School. Some I haven't seen in years. It was wonderful to see everyone in person. Several have blogs which I stalk :) . You all haven't aged a bit girls!
Of course, I got a little shopping in too. Not much, but a little :)
Saturday morning we headed back to Atlanta as my parents headed to T-Town (aka God's country as my Dad calls it) for the game. ROLL TIDE!
Jason watched the game and Nicholas and I started decorating for x-mas. He loved putting out our village houses. Below are some pics of the tree and the mantle. I loved the way they both came out.
