Thanksgiving



On Wednesday night we spent the night at grandma and grandpa's house. We all got up early and left for VA for a Schleicher Thanksgiving. A nice time was had by all and we ate some great food. The highlight of the trip was watching Hailey with all the animals. At one point there were three dogs running around and Hailey chasing after them saying "oof oof" the whole time. She didn't sleep at all on Thursday night because she was so excited about the dogs. When we were carrying her down the stairs at 1am all she kept saying was "oof", we even had to go through each room of the house to show her that the dogs were not there anymore. On Friday she got to pet a cow, a 3 week old baby lamb and some chickens. I can't wait to go back when she is a little older (and when it is a little warmer) so she can play with the animals some more.



On Saturday we got up and met mimi, popi, uncle Jason and Auntie Allie in Floyd VA to cut down Christmas Trees. As always it is an adventure and never works out like we plan. The place that we were going to go (which told mimi and popi was a cut your own tree place) did not have choose and cut trees. So we had to try and find another farm that someone told us about. It turned out that the tree farm was nice and a lot cheaper then the place we ended up at last year. Hailey was in heaven with all the trees around, she would point at them all and say "trees". I love that she is saying more words now, she has the sweetest sounding little voice.




We spent the night at mimi and popi's house and had a Locke Thanksgiving on Sunday and had some more great food. It is always fun getting together with family. Can't wait to do it all again in a few weeks. Less then a month till Christmas!!
