A turkey, a birthday, and a NASCAR...

Happy Thanksgiving (belated)! We made our way to Charlotte, NC via my parents house last Tuesday! We stayed with "Emme" and "Papa" for two nights and then headed to Charlotte for Thanksgiving and to celebrate my Grandmother's (Nana) 90th birthday!







Emme & Papa had a great feast for us and of course the kids were SO excited to have cake and watch Nana blow out her candles. We also had a chance to visit my other Grandmother (we call her "Cooke") on Thanksgiving and again on Friday. The kids had fun riding the elevators at the Embassy Suites and running around with their Emme.




























Finally, Carter got to see a REAL LIVE NASCAR, in person!!! He was so excited, I think prior to that he thought all cars were matchbox size (that's what they look like on tv too!)
