Thanksgiving Part 1

For Thanksgiving this year we headed south and then east. First we drove to Houston to spend a couple of days with Nena and Pops. We left on Monday (Yes, the kids missed a couple days of school, and yes we were going to leave Sunday, but that was snow day). So we waited until later in the morning, let the ice/snow melt some and were finally on our way! The boys did awesome in the car, as usual, and the weather was great, no icy roads!

We got to Nena and Pop's house a little before midnight and they had a birthday party waiting for us for Quinny! Nena had balloons, brownies, party hats, the whole shabang! Quin was so excited and loved every minute of it. We sang to him, opened some presents and ate some brownies....yes, at midnight! He got a Nabi Jr. and absolutely loves his "new ipad"! He played with that some, the boys went upstairs to play, and around 1am they got in the bubble bath. Only at Nena's do we allow such craziness at such crazy hours. It was quick, and we hurried them to bed.

The next day was full of chuck-e-cheese, McDonald's, The Dollar Tree, everything that they love to do with Nena and Pops! They came home exhausted and with a ton of new toys.

That night they took another bubble bath, with different results. To say Nena is a fun grandma, is a total understatement! She's great at "making memories" which is what is most important! We loved spending time at their house, but Wednesday was time to head to Baton Rouge!
