The Traveling Christmas Extraveganza Part 1

Christmas for Rachel and I started on Tuesday after Sadie went to bed we exchanged gifts. The following morning we left for Jackson so we could do Christmas with Connie on Wednesday. Then, on Christmas Eve we drove thru nasty weather to get to Independence LA. This is where Sadie's Great grandparents live, so she finally got to meet her Paw Paw. On Christmas Eve night the whole family goes to uncle Paul's house for a big party. Finally, Christmas is here and we are on the road again to McComb for Christmas with Rachel's dad and his family. After lunch we headed back to Madison and stayed with Aunt Annette. Saturday we made the journey home so we visit with Ruff and Angelia before going to do Christmas with my parents.

Thanksgiving

Sorry this is so late, it has been very busy at Ethridge Construction lately. For Thanksgiving, Rachel, Sadie, and I went to Brandon for dinner at Rachel's Mom's house. My parents also came, as well as Rachel's Aunt Annette, Uncle Steve, Grandma, Cousin Adam, Cousin Jason, Cousin Erin, and her sister Angela. Dinner was great, even though the house smelled like ham instead of turkey. Here are a few pics of the day.
Aunt Annette finaly got to hold her niece.

Great Grandma Carmel just can't get enough of her first great grand child.

Here is our little turkey.

Cousin Jason and Sadie hit it off.
