Thanksgiving in New Hampshire

We try to go to New Hampshire every other year for Thanksgiving. Marty's mom, Mary, and his oldest sister, Marinell (and her family) live up there. This was our year to go again. Although we didn't see any snow this time, we still had fun hanging out with everyone. The kids loved staying/playing with their cousins, Anna, Alice, Seth, Joel, and Ian (a BIG THANKS to Bob and Marinell for keeping/entertaining them).

Some highlights of our trip:

1. Not making our connecting flight in DC, so having to stay in the DC airport for 5 hours until the next flight, then finally arriving in NH at midnight to find out 2 of our 3 bags were MIA.

2. Starting off with the plan to drive just 40 minutes to a movie theatre to see a movie...but getting lost on the way, (drove almost to Boston), then ending up at a McDonald's in Nashua that happened to be hosting a "kids night", so got to experience "Farmer Fred" and his animals. As Hunter would say, "UNEXPECTED".

3. Drawing/painting on Anna's bedroom walls.

4. Having the thanksgiving meal at Mary's church = no dishes to be washed!

5. Glorious, cool weather to run in (even though the hills were a killer!)

We had a great time. Looking forward to the next trip up there. :)

We love you.
