Thanksgiving Fun


I think we've finally recovered and caught up on sleep since Thanksgiving.


What better way to spend the week of Thanksgiving than 52 hours on a road trip with your best friend! There's something about being trapped in a small space together for long periods of time that bring up great conversations that don't occur in day-to-day life.


Tim and I (and Cooper) packed up the car and headed north on Friday, November 16th around 6pm. We arrived at the Hauser Home in Glen Ellyn, Illinois around 2:30pm on Saturday. It was great to be back in the Chicagoland area. We ate at Cozymel's, went to Wheaton Bible Church, and just relaxed from our long trip. On Monday we (Tim, Tiffany, Copper AND Chessie) headed to Adrian, Michigan to spend the rest of the week with Tiffany's family. We spent our time playing in the leaves, playing with the dogs, taking long walks in the brisk weather, eating more food than we needed, and just having a great time with family! We arrived back in Fort Myers, FL on Sunday November 25th and vegged out for the remainder of the day.


Best part: hanging out with family! (and seeing the beautiful fall colors)


Worst part: getting stuck in TWO traffic jams on our way home.


We are very thankful for God's protecting hand upon us during our travels and the blessing of having the time and money to go home and see family!


Hope all of our loved ones were also filled with blessings and thankfullness.
