Thanksgiving & Hunting Season

We had a great Thanksgiving this year. Both of my brothers and sister-in-law came to visit from Indiana. They got in Tuesday night so we got to spend lots of time with them on Wednesday before the rest of the family arrived for the turkey:)

On Wednesday, we shared our big news with my family- we are pregnant! We're due June 27th:)

Thursday was nice and relaxing. My aunt, uncle, and cousins drove here from Kentucky and my Grandpa and Doris came from Buffalo. And the food was delicious, of course!

Usually, we leave Friday morning for Pennsylvania to spend the weekend and first two days of deer season with Jesse's family but this year was a little different. We made the difficult decision to not take Corban because of his allergies- the hospital is just so far away from where my in-laws live if he had a severe reaction- we're hoping he understands his allergies more next year and will know what to stay away from. At any rate, Jesse drove to PA Friday morning by himself and Corban and I drove the 20 minutes to my parents house to spend Friday and Saturday nights and hang out with Tim, Rach, Dan, and my parents some more. On Sunday morning, I left Corban with my parents and drove to PA to see everyone. I had a great time. When I got there, we told them about our pregnancy and they were super excited! So, yesterday was the first day of deer season. Before I left, Ralph, Garrett, and Renee had all gotten one- yeah, Renee! The above picture is her with her deer. After I left, of course, Jesse got a doe, too! So, we'll have venison in our freezer this year:) He said he took a picture of it so maybe I'll post that later for those of you who love the bloody deer shots. All in all, a great week with family!
