Wow, it's hard to go back 6 months to post something on your blog! These are my photos and memories of our Thanksgiving trip to San Antonio to visit Sam's family. It was extra fun to go with the Dunlap's!
Some of the highlights of our trip was of course seeing Sam and Kiley and their three children; staying in their lovely new home; going grocery shopping with them; making meals together; playing games at night; having a delicious and memorable Thanksgiving meal with both families; going on outings with them; bringing home the best Mexican food from Taco Cabana; and feeling the special, peaceful spirit in Sam and Kiley's home.
I also loved that extra time with Jessica's family during our travels when we stopped for gas, food, and potty breaks along the way.
