We went to Tennessee this year to visit family for Thanksgiving. We had such a great time catching up and laughing. It was so nice outside on Thursday that the kids were able to play outside all day. They were loving it. It has been about 4 years since we have been there to visit. Austin was just 3 months old last time they saw him. We stayed at my Aunt and Uncle's house, and boy do they know how to cook. We had turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, fried corn, cornbread dressing, broccoli rice casserole, chicken and dumplings, sweet potato casserole, cranberry salad, pea salad, deviled eggs, rolls, bread and about 6 different desserts. We were full the whole weekend. Joe's favorite was the biscuits and gravy with eggs, bacon, ham and sausage we had for breakfast both mornings. We were relieved to to see we were not going to have to eat rabbit pie and bbq squirrel. My parents were teasing us before we left that, that is what they eat for thanksgiving in the south.
