Drove from Kentucky to Georgia on Wednesday. Arrived at Glenn and Suzi's around 7ish and spend the evening chatting and spending quality time together before zonking out.
Thursday was spent watching Suzi prepare her delicious Thanksgiving meal and foaming at the mouth. Amanda's grandparents, Granny Raine and Papa George, joined us for lunch and even brought Guinness a stuffed turkey. We watched the Macy's parade and the dog show, which is a Thanksgiving Day must. Joe had his nose in the newspaper ads, looking for great deals at Best Buy, while Amanda ragged her dad about getting new eye-glasses.
We headed over to Nancy and Bob's after eating and joined them and Amanda's other grandparents, Gunga & Mimi, for dessert. After catching up on recent events, neighbors came over to visit as did Amanda's friend, Brandy. Entertainment was provided by watching others play Wii!
Friday morning was spent in-bed, far away from the Black Friday craziness. We went to see 4 Christmases in the early afternoon with Nancy and Bob before heading to the eye doctor with Glenn who was getting new eye-wear. We stopped by the N. GA outlet mall to pick up a shirt for Joe and visit Suzi before getting new glasses for the 21st century man. We ate dinner afterwards and then spent quality time back at the house. Friday night was back at Nancy and Bob's, relaxing and watching Fred Claus.
Saturday was the Edwards' family Thanksgiving; everyone on Nancy's side of the family gathered at the Klein ranch for lunch and family pictures. We took several huge group shots in addition to individual family pictures. Wii was brought out again after the house cleared of family. We ate at Amanda's favorite Mexican restaurant, El Rio!
Sunday was spent on the road again. We hugged and kissed both sets of parents before getting going...we made it home in 7 1/2 hours! Thanksgiving traffic sucked.
