oh my goodness!! e & aj are traveling pros! we drove up to fayetteville wednesday evening because my cousin had just had her baby girl and we wanted to be able to eat as a family. we got into our hotel around 1230am after being in the car 11.5 hours…and the kids were amazing!!! there were more stops than normal but they didn’t complain at all {except one minor meltdown when the movie was turned off. miss thing didn’t like that one bit and proceeded to scream “I want the tb…ahhhhhh!!!”}!
thursday morning after breakfast, we headed over to kele & jonathan’s house to meet miss kenzie! she is super precious and we had fun chatting and letting the kiddos play! we attempted a group pic and they did great at first until evan decided he was done and just let go of kenzie 
sorry for the quality…we forgot the camera so cell phone pics had to do!
we were high class this year and had our thanksgiving meal in the hotel’s conference room. it was actually perfect and the kiddos had plenty of room to run around.
yes, that’s a happy meal…no, that’s not what we all had
the men…or some of them…
the spread…
my cousin’s oven went out that morning so we had to improvise on warming up everything {my aunt had ordered everything and picked it up the day before}. we needed to heat the rolls and brian happened to spot a grill outside so our rolls were heated via grill this year…whatever works! miss avery enjoyed watching her daddy {or trying to escape…not sure which}!
the proud grandma {& nanny stealing her granddaughter
avery is OBSESSED with babies so this was perfect for her! here she is getting to meet miss rebecca ann…
evan also said hi to his newest cousin but he was considerably less interested…there were legos to build!
facetiming with james…not sure why we ended up on the floor but whatever…
we happened to look over and e man had grabbed himself a plate, gone to the pie, gotten a piece, and was getting himself some silverware without saying a word. mr. independent apparently!
oh, and a napkin too clearly!
after dinner, we packed up and headed down to my grandparents…4 hours away. luckily nap time helped but our kiddos were so good!!
when we got to grannie annie & papa keith’s, grannie annie brought out a bag full of disney books and the kiddos were in heaven!
vanpa & papa disappeared for a little bit and next thing we knew, the tractors were out & ready for action!
sister’s turn {she had just woken up from her nap}…
someone wanted his picture taken
he wanted me to take his picture running back and forth in the bed of vanpa’s truck…so I did
tractor switch!
evan was going napless one day when he asked nanny to read him a book. apparently he was a little too comfy because I looked over and saw this one minute…
this the next…
& then this…
brian and I left saturday morning to get to the aTm game and my parents hung out with the kiddos and visited some more before heading home that afternoon. we all met up in katy at their house around 1 in the morning after an aggie win and some serious driving!! so glad we were able to see everyone!!!

Frankly, I'm surprised Evan fell asleep before his Nanny!
