North Carolina Thanksgiving

We are back from a long vacation in North Carolina, where we spent time with Lindsey's family. We had fabulous weather and a wonderful time. Audrey got to spend some real quality time with her cousins at the beach. Things have been a whirlwind since we've been home--annual holiday shopping trip with my mom, aunts, and cousins, and doing all the final planning and preparation for Audrey's first real birthday party. Not to mention, Christmas. In spite of a rocky start with my mom's heart attack in February, 2010 has been a good year for us. We are so thankful for all that we have. Below are some of my favorite pictures from our vacation.
