Thanksgiving 2009

We went home to Nebraska for Thanksgiving and had a great time seeing family and friends. We also drove the 15-hour trip, which allowed us to take the beagle.

Thanksgiving day we visited Scott's family in Elmwood. We took all of the dogs so we could go for a nice walk down by the tracks after dinner. Bridget and Nala had to share a house.

Jade found a deer jaw bone.

Sadie and Nala got to go swimming, but Bridget just got to watch because she cannot be trusted for any length of time off of a leash (we've learned this the hard way).

Friday we celebrated Thanksgiving dinner with Renee's family.

Saturday morning Scott took a few people flying in Lincoln. The air was crisp and clear, perfect for flying! We were in Lincoln right as the sun was coming up.

The first flight was Eric and his friend Clint.

Taking off. Next Scott took Grandpa Young and Katie. It was Grandpa's 83rd birthday as well!

All set...

They got a quick tour of Lincoln.

The last flight was Scott's dad and niece.

They flew over Elmwood. Saturday afternoon we went to see Scott's sister's family and their various animals, which included, but were not limited to the following: Edward the goat, Botticelli the St. Bernard, an unknown snake, and numerous anonymous dead deer (not pictured).

We had an awesome trip...no problems on the road and great weather. It was great to get to see everyone!
