Dan put chairs out early in the morning to save a spot for us to watch the parade in front of the Sippin' Cow Cafe. The rain almost spoiled the parade, but it prevailed and we walked away with smiling faces and lots of candy!
We drove to Pennsylvania the day after a record breaking blizzard. They had about 2 feet of snow on the ground that hung around for Christmas Day. Dan helped the kids build two snowmen and one snow fort. James and Hayes didn't even complain about the pink snow suits we borrowed from their cousins.
We celebrated Thanksgiving in Bluffton with Gram, Papa, Aunt Alicia, and Uncle Adam. Halle, James, Hayes, Mama, and Aunt Alicia made chocolate chip oatmeal raisin cookies to celebrate Papa's birthday.
