Thanksgiving in Alabama

This past week was a BLAST!  The fam and I headed south for the week of thanksgiving in a feeble attempt to escape the bitter frosticity of the midwest.  We left last Tuesday at 2 and drove to the other side of Louisville where we stopped for the night.  We could have made it that night, but Kim and I had already decided we were going to stop and take Jax swimming.  We made it to Huntsville by lunch time on Wed and met Andrew for Mexican food.

Thursday was spent with Steve, Rachel and their three (yes three) kids.  It was so great to be back with them.  We were able to catch up with so many folks who mean the world to us.  The Holladay's treated us to dinner on Saturday night and we got to spend some time with our old "crew" on Sunday evening after church.  

All in all, it was a good trip and leaving proved to be as difficult as always.  We truly have much to be thankful for.  Hope you enjoy the pictures.
