Thanksgiving at the Holritz's!!!

We just got back yesterday from a nice, long Thanksgiving vacation at my (Nathan's) parent's home in North Carolina. We ate lots of food, enjoyed being able to relax and not do a whole lot, and I even got to go water skiing!!!

There are so many pictures to share, so here goes....


Amber was little bored during the car trip to NC...

After eating, you've got to take a bath (at least if you eat the way Addison does)!

(one night we were watching a movie and the tv stopped working... to solve the problem, my dad hooked up his laptop to the projector, and we now had a 60-plus inch wide screen view of the movie!)

Okay, I'm totally stealing your photobooth idea when we go down to Fort Lauderdale for Christmas! It would go over so well with the fam down there! The pics looks like you had an amazing time. I love holidays where everyone can just chill. It's such a nice change of pace. We MAY just have to steal you guys away to Ft. Lauderdale for Christmas. :)

These are awesome Amber and Nathan. I loved all of them and had a big smile on my face while I looked through them. My absolute favorite though is the shot of the whole family in the mirror after the bath. The expressions, especially yours Amber, are priceless.

There is so much love in these photos. It is great to see how wonderful you all get along, and what great parents you two are.

It looks like you really had a chance to chill too, and put things on the back burner a little. I’m thankful for that because you deserve it.

Rock on!

Weird, for a moment I thought that was you in the Legos. I so kicked your rear in Kin-nikuman wrestling!
Great pics!

There's nothing like a pile of legos to say FAMILY FUN! Awesome, y'all. Glad you took a much-needed, well-deserved respite from the hectic schedule.

Hugs from Rachel and the rest of the LaCour crew!

The photos are fantastic and made me want to be a part of the fun. Would your family be willing to adopt another member? It's good to see so much love and fun and happiness and good ol' family time. It gives me hope. Thanks for sharing.
