Thanksgiving 2010

The table was set.
 Places were marked.
 Desserts were made with love.
 Breaks from the kitchen were enjoyed.
 Sparkling Cider bubbled.
 Thank you, Dad and Mom, for flying out to Virginia to spend Thanksgiving with us.  We enjoyed the hugs, the laughter, and just getting to enjoy time spent with both of you!

We ventured to Mount Vernon. but the rain and dark sky directed our steps to the restaurant instead.

 Mom enjoyed the Peanut Butter soup...she may be the only person within 50 miles who actually liked it.
After lunch at Mount Vernon, we decided to drive to the Natural History museum. Jesse and Dad parked the car while Mom and I waited in the freezing cold (and drippy) weather.


 The sun decided to come out on Monday, so while Jesse was at work, Dad, Mom, and I ventured back out to Mount Vernon to explore the plantation.
 Mom was kind enough to ride in a wheelchair to prevent her knee from killing her.  I have the callouses to prove that we pushed her up hills and through aisles.  What a fun memory!
