Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving as I’m hoping you all did!  We went to Greenville, SC to visit Jarrod’s family.  We had a great time seeing everyone, but I must say the “hit” in Bo’s eyes was his cousin Lily!  He loves Josie too, but Josie is a little younger and doesn’t quite understand why Bo can’t play with her like other friends her age.  Although, her mom says that she thinks as soon as he turns 3, he’ll get it…he’ll understand things, speak better, and mind haha!  Hmmm, that’s a lot of pressure on January!  The kids had a blast playing and it was so nice to be able to send them in the next room to play and not have to worry too much…I’m trying to work out a deal where Lily come and stays with us for a weekend or so!  It was also great getting to spend time with Jarrod’s parents, sister and brother in law.  We also got our first trip to downtown Greenville, which I must say I was most impressed!  It’s adorable and seems like a fabulous place to raise a family. 

The only negative to Thanksgiving this year is I came home with a horrible stomach virus that started Sunday night.  After talking with Kim it turns out Josie was hit on Sunday night as well.  Jarrod never actually got sick, but had constant nausea for about a day.  I was wiped out, but finally starting to feel better.  So far Bo has gotten away untouched, I just hope it stays that way!  If everyone is well then we will head out for our Christmas tree Saturday.  We definitely have a very busy December planned, but all fun things!  Just trying not to do too much and remember what the season is all about!

playing with Lily’s remote control car…she was very patient because all he did was run it into the walls!

At the festival of trees, downtown Greenville!  Bo had a blast and he also thought the ornaments were balls and decided to throw a few across the rooms!!

only my family will understand this picture…somewhere we have a picture of my brother, probably about the same age at

my great-grandmother’s birthday and he’s digging in the nut bowl.  The pictures are identical, hoping my mom found the picture!
