We drove to Tio Rafael's house for Thanksgiving this year. Cesar packed up the van and we loaded all three kids inside (minus Rodrigo... sniff, sniff, sniff). I had snacks packed up in little bags and movies at the ready until, all three of our kidletts passed out! It was amazing. Cesar chose some 50's tunes from the satellite radio and we listened, hummed along, and talked when we felt like it. I even knit. The entire drive! Gosh it felt good. Half way to Boston, Cesar asked if I was hungry. We pulled over at the Mc Donald's in the next rest stop. We even managed to keep them all sleeping while we had the longest imaginable wait at the pickup window.
All and all, it was a very relaxing Thanksgiving. I suppose that's how it feels when you aren't responsible for any of the cooking. I did make a pumpkin pie, but one pie just isn't the same as an entire turkey dinner.
