The last few years we've gone to the beach for Thanksgiving. It is really great to have a few days away before the busyness of December. The kids love being there, nobody stresses about cooking a big Thanksgiving meal, and we just hang out. This year it was especially nice to have some help on days when I wasn't feeling well.
The first day we were there it was pretty warm and we enjoyed some time out on the beach. The water was freezing, but that didn't seem to stop Will!
They have a really cute Thanksgiving parade each year. Everyone decorates their golf carts and passes out candy. This was the only pic I got of the parade this year because my camera battery died. Catherine is holding her birthday present from Mimi and PopPop--an American Girl doll. She has named her Adrienne and is thrilled!
On Friday night, Wild Dunes has their annual tree lighting event. They also have out a huge gingerbread house for the kids to decorate. Mostly the kids end up eating the candy instead of putting it on the house, but that's okay.
It's always nice to have a little break at the beach.
And now we're into December.....Christmas, birthdays, and an anniversary, so lots to come!
