Thanksgiving Day

In order to escape some of our sadness, we headed to DC for a relaxing Thanksgiving vacation.  Just like last year, we started our holiday with a five mile turkey trot.  This year, Savannah joined us!!  She ran the race of her life.  Out of 4,200 runners, she finished 3rd for the 10 and under crowd.  She averaged a 9:25 mile.  Needless to say, passed her pregnant Mama!  This girl can really run!!

Later that day, we devoured a delicious meal with the good company of friends.  Some of us, including Savannah, braved Toys R'us that night just to see what it was all about.  Savannah was thrilled to get her first taste of Black Friday madness.  Personally, I did most of my shopping on my ipad throughout the day.

 

We ended our stay with a drive through a light show and amusement park rides.  We were all pretty tearful as we geared up to drive home to a very empty house.  We really miss our kitty.
