Back and blogging

Yet again sorry for the delay. Some of you have really been pushing me for those Thanksgiving pictures so here goes. We had a great time in New York. The weather was very warm much like here that week. Flying went really well and was much better than driving. Aleeza did amazing while flying. She kept calling the airplane the "birrrd". She would stare out the windown with Brandon and just poing at things. I don't think she had any idea how high we really were in the air. We were able to stay for almost a week. Poor Brandon was sick pretty much the entire day. He sat at the Thanksgiving meal on Thursday and just stared at all the food eating nothing. He is still not completely well but eating now. So needless to say the first part of the trip was not too much fun for him. We had a great time visiting with family members though. On Wednesday we just pretty much layed around and got some rest. Brandon and I drove to the "near by" mall so he could get a hair cut. Of course Thursday was Thanksgiving. We spent the evening at Great Grandmas house and Aleeza got to play with some cousins she had never really met before. On Friday we did the day after shopping for only about 3 hours. Brandon drove us.. :) We did find some good deals. Saturday was spent searching for the perfect Christmas tree and decorating it. Up there you can buy trees , the most beautiful trees for $25.00. Find it, saw it, haul it off. Very nice. Down here we are looking at like $75.00. Oh well... That night we did Christmas with the family. Aleeza is much more into gifts this year than last. We had fun. On Sunday we were able to go to church. This is the church Brandon excepted the Lord in almost 5 years ago. I love going back there and thanking the Lord for saving him. That church has a special place in my heart. Sunday afternoon Brandon was able to spend with Jesse and old friend. It was fun sharing old stories.. :) Mom Abbott got really sick Saturday night so Sunday was not much fun for her. She had planned this big meal and everything. Well, we did enjoy. Monday was spent with visiting Great Grandma one on one with Aleeza. Four generations. How special. We headed on Monday night. That is the trip in a nut shell. Enjoy the pictures.
