The Thanksgiving trek home to Moscow!

Thanksgivings for us are usually spent with My Mom in Moscow, Idaho. It is a very looong 6 hour drive these days but Greg and I always love to return to the place we met and although we don't always see familiar faces everywhere we look now, it is great to hook up with those who did stick around. 
This year we were able to spend a lot of time mingling with old friends as Mom and Lyanne helped out watching the little turkeys while we had a lot of fun! Thank you for the much needed break.
This Thanksgiving also marked out 4th Anniversary so instead of time alone out on a hot date, we spent it over-indulging on a fantastic Thanksgiving meal with my Mom, Lyanne (her bun in the oven), her boyfriend Loren and our two little ones. Grace fully enjoyed the entire meal while Jeffrey was a little less hungry this year than most.
We do love the craze of Black Friday in Moscow and meticulously plan out our attack on retailers in the wee hours. This year Grandma stayed home while we split up to score great deals. Thanks Grandma! 
 
Another thing we were able to do this year was attend the Final Vandal Football Game of the season. My longtime friend from school Adrienne and her boyfriend Brad shared some of their season tickets with us and we tailgated with them enjoying 'warm' drinks and yummy food. The Vandals didn't win that day but we had a great time. An event I would like to make a tradition, maybe!
