This year, we have gotten to celebrate the holiday all week long! It was such a blessing for Aaron and I to both be able to take the week the whole week off and spend time with our parents! His parents came in from Oregon, and we all drove to South Carolina to spend the week with my parents as well. I have started to fall in love with this quaint, historic city of Charleston. We have been here a couple of times before, but this is the longest we have been here with nothing to do but relax, enjoy family, and explore the city. We have been to the beach, explored the adorable little island my parents live on, gone on a carriage ride through downtown Charleston, a boat ride out to Ft. Sumter (where the 1st shots of the civil war were fired), eaten lots of incredible food at local restaurants, shopped, watched football, enjoyed a Thanksgiving feast at Cracker Barrel (yes, we decided not to cook this year), watched a lot of Friday Night Lights, and had plenty of time to relax and enjoy family (even my little brother and his girlfriend, who I hardly ever get to see). It has been such a good time with family this week in this wonderful city! Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We have much to be thankful for...
