Family Thanksgiving Photos #WW

Tuesday, November 29, 2011 Posted by Aleksandra Nearing

We drove from Atlanta to Hartwell, Georgia for our annual big Thanksgiving celebration.  Then we meandered through the winding mountain roads through Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina and Tennessee to spend time with family in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.  It was a lot of driving but a lot of fun to see everyone.  Here are a couple of photos - I took over 300 in total!

Cousins gift exchange craziness!


We went for some golf cart rides.  Here's Lily and Aunt Cheri, who hosted Thanksgiving this year.  We also went for a boat ride on Lake Hartwell - it was chilly!





My dinner and family pictures leave much to be desired.  Hopefully someone else took a better photo!


Driving through the mountains was beautiful...and long.  Average speed 41mph.  Ouch.



In Oak Ridge we hit the children's museum.  It was very different than the one here in Atlanta and the kids enjoyed it.



Grandma Debbi got the kids matching PJs.  Cuties!
