Thanksgiving

This year we traveled to High Point, North Carolina for Thanksgiving to spend time with Lee's mom and step-dad, Craig and brother and step-sisters. Katy was in town from DC and Allison came in from Roanoke. Lee's Grandpa (Bauer's Great Grandpa) Miller came down from Minnesota. We were so excited to see him!

We left Virginia Beach Wednesday afternoon and arrived late that night to family who hadn't met Bauer yet which is actually everyone except Lee's mom. She had burgers waiting on us..fresh off the grill! On Thanksgiving day, Thursday, The Dockery's, Spencer and Jonathan joined us for dinner. The dinner was A-MAAAAAZ-ING! yummo! I had some much needed home cooked food and wine. We spent the evening relaxing and watching movies..including Charlie Brown Thanksgiving which is a tradition for me that I'm starting with Bauer. He watched too! On Friday, Lee and I went over to his friend Chris's parents' house to introduce him to B. His sister and parents were there and were all so excited. Unfortunately, Bauer decided to embarrass us and have a HUGE blow-out right in the middle of it all..ruining not one but TWO outfits! By the time we left, he was swaddled in a blanket. Everyone thought it was hilarious except me..I felt so dumb! That night, Katy offered to watch Bauer while Lee and I met up with Chris and John for Mexican dinner and Black Friday shopping :)

Saturday, I went with Katy and Craig to Costco for some much needed items and then met up with Lee, John, Julie, Craig, and Bauer for a walk at the park/disc golf course. I returned home to make my famous Mac and Cheese for dinner before Lee headed out to his 10 year high school reunion with Chris. I spent the night with John and Katy and Bauer watching Crazy Stupid Love. A movie which I'd already seen..but LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Sunday, we woke up and headed to church and back to the house for lunch before heading home! We had such a wonderful weekend with the family and friends and are already looking forward to Christmas in Roanoke!! :) Here are a few favorite pictures from the long weekend! :)
