Up until a few weeks ago we had no Thanksgiving plans, in fact our plans was to have a mini Thanksgiving dinner at home. Robyn had dreams of a tiny turkey for two, and little portions of stuffing, sweet potato casserole and what have you. Upon hearing this, John and Marchellina invited us up to their home outside Chapel Hill, it would be a small family Thanksgiving…
So we left work at around 1:30 and made our way up I-85 suffering from a little bit of traffic around Concord Mills area. After making a couple of stops for lunch and buying 2 extra Wii remotes (we brought the Wii so they could see the fuss) we arrived at about 6pm. After a pizza dinner and setting up the Wii, we showed it off as we played Wii Bowling, Tennis and Boxing, rocked out on Guitar Hero 3, and messed around with a few of the channels. I think they were suitabely impressed, now they just have to find one…
Thanksgiving Day its self was pretty quiet apart from the meal, we had a long walk along the banks of the Haw River to work up an appetite for the awesome platter laid before us before we had to say our goodbyes and head home around 6pm as we both had to work the following day. We also needed to begin the clean up process as my Dad is coming into town today… We also put up the Christmas tree, but more on that later.
