Well, The Seelye Six actually made their way to Arlington to visit Nana and Papaw at their house for Thanksgiving on Thursday. Mommy and daddy timed it perfectly so that after finishing solid foods for breakfast, the babies' bellies were full and they all took their morning nap all the way there. Savannah enjoyed watching Barney on the DVD player. Mommy and daddy enjoyed some peace and quiet sipping on coffee and hot chocolate for an hour...oh, heavenly bliss! This was the trips very first visit to Nana and Papaw's house ever! Of course, everything pretty much revolved around the babies' schedule, but we made it work, and Nana was so accommodating and prepared for us. Thank you, Nana and Papaw, for cleaning, cooking, and preparing your house for us to come over. We had lots of visitors, Uncle Steve and Aunt Marla, Aunt Mary Jack and cousin Lauren, Uncle Craig, Aunt Dana, cousins Katie and Josh, and Uncle Chad with cousins Dylan and Collin. Maddy was sick so Aunt Alisha stayed home with her. Even some neighbors came by to see us! We all had a great day, but everyone was tired when we got home. We did manage to get one family pic with poor Parker's ears sticking out, and Nana and Papaw got a pic with our 4 kids and then got one with 6 of their 7 grandchildren. Maybe at Christmas they will get all 7 if everyone is well! Thanks everyone for a great time! We'll do it again in December!!! Oh, I almost forgot---we finally went gate shopping and now Parker feels like he's in jail. He cries and cries and cries when he's on the outside and parents are in the kitchen. So sad! Hopefully the babies will get used to the new gates and this sadness will pass; although Parker is Mama's boy, and he gets me every time...ugh!
