Thanksgiving!!

It was so fun having Samantha, Colt and sweet little Calvin here since Wednesday!  On Thursday, for Thanksgiving, we had a wonderful day together and even Grammy came for dinner!  It was so fun to see her, even if she doesn't remember any of us and insists she needs to get to know us.  At 92, with only a tiny bit of her memory left, she is still a joy and so sweet with all the kids.  From what we can tell, she remembers her 3 daughters and their spouses but that's about it.  But we love her tiny little self and feel so blessed to have her with us.

On Friday, Scott and I went and spent the night at the Anniversary Inn.  It's a beautiful Bed and Breakfast that has 41 speciality themed rooms.  It was gorgeous and we had such a great time together.  We never really celebrated out anniversary because I was still recovering from the flu at the time.  We haven't  spent a night away from the kids for years (except when we stayed with Zachary at the hospital the night before he passed away).  Sam, Colt and Sabrina held down the fort while we were gone and we are so thankful for their willingness to do that!  It was nice to not have to worry about anything at home. 

Today Sam and Colt blessed Calvin at church!  Colt's family came into town as well.  It was so great to see them.  Samantha is truly blessed with great in-laws!  Everyone came for lunch after church and it was so nice to just sit around and visit with everyone!

It's back to school tomorrow!  Just 3 weeks away from Christmas break and all the kids are super excited! 

Here are a couple of pics from our Thanksgiving dinner and one of the Bed and Breakfast we stayed at!

 I really should have mentioned that I was taking a picture but I didn't think about it!  Haha...but at least 2 beautiful girls were looking at the camera!
 
 Good job, Sabrina!  She was looking!!!
 
Isn't it beautiful???  This is the Anniversary Inn where we stayed!  A much needed night away....
