Thanksgiving blessings already!

So you all know that we were kind of sad about being stranded in North Carolina for Thanksgiving, but we just couldn't afford to fly home in November and then in December.
Well, Allana's Nana and Paw Paw (Dan's mom and dad) are flying us home for the Thanksgiving holiday! We are so appreciative, and very excited that we won't miss this special holiday with our family and friends. What a wonderful gift from them...it will be a Thanksgiving full of gratitude.
We're flying Express Jet, and we'll arrive in New Orleans Tuesday night. We'll be in Alabama through Friday night. It'll be a quick trip, but it'll be just what we need.
That means we've had family and friends come up in September, we're meeting Dan's family in Gatlinburg for a week in October, we're coming home for Thanksgiving in November, and for Christmas in December!!! What a wonderful way to end the year! We're trying to talk my brother into coming up to ski in January, so maybe 2008 will be as full of visits from friends and family as 2007 has been.
