Thanksgiving!

We decided to go up the Georgia again this year and have a Southern Thanksgiving. It was a lot of fun being with family and letting the cousins play with each other. Between ours, Polly's, and Victoria's kids there are 6 kids 4 and younger and then Zeke. On Thanksgiving day we went to this really neat park and had Victoria take our family pictures.

The park has this really tall tower that you can hike up and look down. There is also a path you can follow through some trees and there are vines hanging down that you can swing on. Wes found a vine that would hold his weight but would break whenever he tried to swing. I really think he was hoping he could swing from vine to vine like Tarzan.

After the park we headed to Will's aunts house and had a southern thanksgiving dinner. Now I am sure some of you may be thinking well what is different? A lot!!! I am a huge mashed potato fan and lets just say they don't have that. Enough said. Will's family is so nice and takes us in just like family. Later on that night we went to Will's parents house for Cole's birthday party. He is so cute and just wanted a family party this year. So when we got to their house he went up to Allie and said I am having just a family party this year but you can come because you are my cousin. Kids are so cute!!! It was so fun being with family and I think I will always remember these Thanksgivings out here because they are so different than what I grew up with.
