A three-hour drive each way...
...and a horrible night's sleep in a cheap hotel room (having Tobin--AKA Helicopter Blade--in bed with Jeff and I did nothing to improve our sleep...I could not believe how much that boy moves in his sleep...I never knew whether the next blow from him would be a kick in my head or a knee in my back or a head-butt on my nose...if for no other reason, Tobin is why I dislike the thought of a family bed!)... :)
...is unquestionably worth it...
For purpose of comparison, last year's post, with plenty of pictures, is here. Shav was so little then!

It would appear that you have an adoption story in your family. :)
Fabulous!
I love it! We got to spend Thanksgiving with another "branch" of our family tree this year as well, and it was wonderful. I'm so glad you guys had a great holiday as well. :-)
Katie, yes, you're right! My brother and his wife adopted three siblings from Guatemala seven years ago. :)
Actually, there's more adoption than that in the family, although not in this particular branch that was pictured. My parents adopted my sister here in Virginia, then adopted my brother in Puerto Rico; that was all before I was born. My sister adopted two children domestically here in Virginia. We're quite a grafted-in tree, and I LOVE IT! I know you understand. :)
