So Much To Be Thankful For...

This year was the first since Kendall was a few months old that we have spent Thanksgiving with my parents.  The two years we lived in Jax before we traveled up to Kiawah to have dinner at the Sanctuary.  Since we're back in Jax, we decided to rekindle that tradition.  The kids were so happy to see their Nanny & Pappy and Kendall sobbed for the first 30 minutes of our ride home because she missed them so much.  It broke my heart to see her so upset, yet glad that she loves them so much that it caused her so much pain to leave them.

They keep getting cuter every year!

The Sanctuary is such a great family friendly place - they have this fancy buffet where everyone dresses up for but they have a special room for the kids where they can play, color, craft, watch movies and can find "kid friendly" food if they don't enjoy the buffet.  Kendall found the cotton candy they were making in the kids room!

Kendall's favorite activity with her Nanny was coloring and helping Nanny cook.

Well, at least she sat on his lap this year.  She didn't want to tell him what she wanted for Christmas but she did manage to mention one item.  

A good time was had by all.  It was a shame that the weather was cold while we were there.  The wind was bitter and there was a chill in the air...I know, I should be use to it, but remember we left from Orlando, came home to unpack and repack then head to Kiawah Island...
