Ok, so where was I? Oh right, Thanksgiving.

After sleeping in (as I normally do, missing the Macy's parade for another year in a row), we got up to find the rest of my family had arrived. My aunt and her husband -would he be an uncle or a step uncle since he's not my cousin's dad? hmm-had brought their two dogs, so I was immediately attacked as I stepped out of the camper. Don't worry, they're harmless; how much damage can a hotdog dog do? The lab is a different story, but I think he'd just slobber you to death. heheh

My cousin and her husband were also there and later his parents arrived. That would make them my....uhh..I don't think I have the brain power for this. Well anyways, there were a bunch of us there. We ate. End of story.

Ok not really. True, we did eat. And eat. And eat. My super cool mom fixed the stuffing veggie style so I could enjoy it too. :) And then there was the pie. *drool* Cherry Cream Cheese...mmmm. You could use blueberries or blackberries or whatever other kind of pie filling you can find, but I LOVE cherry. Might have to try making that one day; too bad it's so fattening.

The guys helped my aunt move some stuff out of their old house and then everyone left to share the rest of their day with other branches of the family. Really, like a whole other tree...anywayz

I got a chance to look through some photo albums my grandparents had and see pictures of them and my dad as kids. That's always fun.

My parents decided to head out on Friday so they would have a day to rest before jumping back in the fray that is Leisure Arts. Jeff & I decided to do the same since we both had some things we wanted to do too. But before leaving SC we made a slight detour to Myrtle Beach.

The extended-overnight-detour gave us all a chance to relax and have some fun. We split up for dinner (my parents have this favorite seafood place and neither Jeff nor I eat seafood). Jeff and I managed to squeeze in a little outlet shopping before eating at Hard Rock Cafe.

After spending some quality time with my parents at the hotel they hit the sack to be rested for an early start. Jeff and I left there at 11 and headed north. We ended up searching forever for a Waffle House, but finally gave up and settled for Krispy Kreme. But as we pulled out of the parking lot and around the bend in the road, lo-and-behold a Waffle House. DOH!

Oh well, at least we got to stop at Sonic for lunch later. :) Rescued the little monster from the boarding place and made it home by 7:30ish. Sunday Jeff waited at Firestone to get his stock wheels put back on before the snow started and I did a lot of laundry. Hmm...yeh, I think that about sums it all up.
