Thanksgiving Road Trip

We headed out Friday on our annual Thanksgiving road trip to Virginia to see my side of the family. This trip can take up to 10 hours, without kids, so we've started breaking it up and staying in a hotel half-way. Sarah was beyond excited about the hotel and kept asking us "when are we going to get to the hotel," "how far away is the hotel," or the ever popular "are we there yet?"

We arrived rather late in the evening, but the next morning we quickly realized why she was so excited to stay at the hotel...the swimming pool! :-) While I stayed with Emily, Sarah & Daddy hit the complimentary breakfast and then headed to the pool. By the time Emily & I arrived, they were having a ball playing in the hot tub and doing cannon balls into the pool. :-)


Making "Santa" faces with the foam from the hot tub.


Emily got into the action as well by taking her first "dip" in the pool. She loved it when her toes hit the water and gave us the biggest smile!


Daddy with his girls. :-)

Looks like the kids (and Steve) were having a good time. And it looks like Emily likes the water as much as Sarah. Have fun in Virginia and Happy Thanksgiving to all of you.
