Thanksgiving 2014


 We had a big road trip this Thanksgiving, traveling to Alabama and then SC to see both of our families. There was lots of coloring, DVD watching, and iPad playing along the way, but it was worth it to see so many people.
 Kathryn and Audrey both enjoyed their time with our cousin, Elizabeth. She's the "baby/child whisperer" in our family.
 My cousin Jennifer, her daughter Katherine and my aunt Martha joined us outside in the wind for a quick pic.
 Aunt Carol and Uncle Bruce
 sweet Chloe - so glad she was feeling well enough to join us! Audrey loved spending time with her and calling her "the artist"!
 Michaela, Sharon, Craig and Chloe. Audrey and Kathryn wore Michaela and Chloe out with all their games and playing!
 the Lane crew - Cindy, Gary, Linda, Jeff, Marilyn and Jennifer
 the Lanes
 thankful that Gary and Cindy come home each year and help plan this big celebration
 such a photogenic bunch!

 the Carter siblings - minus Aunt Carole; Craig, Kathy, Cindy and Martha
 the Pettys and Striblings
 our little bunch (minus napping Andrew); it was sooo windy and cold!
 the younger cousins
 a little early birthday celebration for Andrew
 the King!
 he LOVED the cake
 went right for it
 "Who, me?"


 Of course, the girls needed some too!
 Kathryn is thanking Aunt Cindy for her doll
 She's a little mommy.
 Andrew's first candy cane!
 This little piano from the Pettys saved us on our trip home.
 Aunt Linda watching over wild man.
 We also got to see David's family in AL. Uncle Michael was teaching Andrew how to fist bump!
 The girls were so excited.

 Ana celebrated her third birthday!
 Grandmother even had games and party favors planned, in addition to Thanksgiving dinner!
 Decorating their cupcakes was a thrill.
Happy birthday, sweet Ana!
