Thanksgiving in the South

I thought Thanksgiving might just be another day on the road for us this year. Luckily for us our friends, The Riggleman's, invited us to join them at their Uncle's house in Summerville, SC. At first, I thought it would be weird showing up at a complete stranger's house to eat Thanksgiving dinner but we figured they wouldn't have invited us unless they were serious about us coming so we said what the heck and went.

We were so glad we did. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and completely comfortable. Our hosts were so nice and Gigi is an excellent cook so that was a nice bonus.

The kids got to play with their friends from home, Lauren, Josh and Nathan.  Here is a picture of the boys playing with Andrew's Beyblades:

We ate so much that we stuffed ourselves and I couldn't eat any dessert. After dinner the grown ups challenged the kids to a game of kick ball. The grown ups lasted three innings and lost by a landslide.

Not only was it a great day, we made some new friends. Lots of stuff to be thankful for!
