happy thanksgiving

An eventful day!

We got the kids up  REALLY early and headed out for our turkeyjerky day weekend.  at 2:30 am the boys were rousting around in their bedrooms.  So we decided to get underway.  on the highway by 5am, trying to beat a winter storm.  however we were slowed down a bit by a deer.

the chrome piece that was left here didn't make it must past this stop...  the wind was blowing like mad,  you can see how it shifted the cargo topper clear to one side.  

The car ride was pretty smooth otherwise, only a few fights and none between ta and buzzard! 

we made it, beat the storm and still had time to hit the the Christmas display downtown.  it was so cool.  The animated elves were fun for the kids to watch and SANTA!  what a day.  The kids are so excited to be with their cousins and they just crashed a few minutes ago.
