Our First Thanksgiving.

Whew! That's all I can say. We had a very eventful Thanksgiving this year. The day started out at 9 o'clock at Maw Maw Caroline's in Belmont. She fixed us breakfast. Man was that ham good. After leaving her house we decided to go visit Maw Maw Eula, Jon's great grandmother, in the nursing home in Fulton.She was so happy to see us, and we were glad to see her. We weren't able to stay very long because we had to go to my grandmothers for lunch.
When we got to Maw Maw's Brad and Paw Paw were sitting outside, which wasn't too out of the ordinary, but once we went inside, we knew why. Maw Maw's air was out, and this Thanksgiving it was 80 degrees. But despite the air not working, we all managed to sit just long enough to eat.The food was so ymmy, Maw Edna always seems to out do herself. Gotta love her. We stayed at Maw Maw's house until we had to go to the Howard Thanksgiving that evening, and by the time we arrived to the Howard Thanksgiving, o boy was I stuffed. But somehow I managed to gulp down a few more helpings. ;) Thankfully after we ate, we decided to play XBOX Kinect, so maybe I burned off some of the 6000 calories I consumed today.Spending time with our families is very important to us and we enjoyed every minute of it today.Yes, we ate too much and couldn't barely keep our eyes open on the drive home, but there is nothing like spending the day with people y
