We had a great Thanksgiving!

We left on Wednesday afternoon (we got a late start) and got into Arkansas around 830pm. It rained so bad and there was traffic in the main towns during our travel.

Thursday morning we got up early and went to Marvin and Brenda's (my great uncle and aunts house). We ate lunch and then about 3 hours later we headed over to my Nana's (mothers mom) and ate more food.

Friday morning the girls got up and went shopping for a plunger and draino because the whole house's sewer system backed up and no one could take showers or go to the bathroom. HAHA it was very entertaining to say the least. Later that day we finished our shopping at the local places like Freds, Masseys, and the dollar stores. For lunch we had deer steak and potatoes cooked by my moms brother (uncle steve). Surprisingly, it was delicious. I was scared of eating it at first. I ate it when I was younger but hadn't eaten it since. Friday night we went back to Brenda and Marvin's for some gumbo cooked by my dad's cousin (Wayne). He made a pot of gumbo with the usual shrimp in it and made me my own separate pot so I would not swell up like a blow fish. That was so nice of him!

(We caught dennis putting LSU stickers on Nana's car, so we put them upside down on his car!)

(Dad and Debbie friday night)

Saturday morning we ate a quick breakfast with my dads mom (mawmaw) and uncle todd and headed out about 8am.

It was such a great trip! I think robby really enjoyed getting to meet all my family and taste the different meals at each place.

Hope y'all had a wonderful thanksgiving! Christmas is just around the corner!!
