Kevin and I are getting more excited everyday about our plans for Thanksgiving. We didn't get to go to Missouri last year, but we had a great time with our friends Tim & Jill. This year we decided to take a long vacation and spend 1 week and 2 days with our family. We found out early that Kevin will not be having any classes that week and I have enough vacation time built up that we can make it.
We'll be leaving Fort Worth as soon as Kevin gets out of class on Friday, November 21st, which is around 10:40am. It usually takes us about 9 hours to get to Lebanon, but I'm sure we'll have to stretch it to more like 10 since I'll probably be needing to use the restroom a little more often. So we expect to roll into the driveway somewhere around 10pm or so.
We already have a lot of plans to see friends and family. We'll see Nate during the first weekend. Saturday we'll be heading to Springfield to see some of our friends. Then on Sunday after church it's off to the Jones' family Thanksgiving in Lockwood. I think we'll rest and not plan anything for Monday and then see my brother Justin and his family on Tuesday. Wednesday evening Kevin's brother and sister and their families will be coming to Lebanon as well. Of course, Thursday is Thanksgiving, so we'll be driving around to see more family. Friday looks like another rest day and then Saturday we're having a baby shower. Then we'll head back to Texas on Sunday. Now that I think about it, we're gonna be pretty busy all week. But it will be worth it.
If you're planning on being around the Lebanon/Springfield area during that week let us know. We'd love to see you!
