Thanksgiving with the Duvall Side





This year, we broke all Thanksgiving traditions and traveled to Omaha for Thanksgiving with Jeff's parents and brother. Jeff's mom and brother work there, so they have an apartment there (even though Lorraine's permanent home is in Cherokee with Jeff's dad - which is where we normally go to celebrate the holiday with Jeff's side of the family). We stayed at a hotel (a very nice one, by the way) with a pool so the boys could enjoy some swimming time, and they loved every minute of it! The main Thanksgiving tradition that we broke this year was NO turkey and all the fixin's for dinner...we ate at a Chinese buffet instead! It was SO GOOD that we didn't feel one bit bad about missing out on turkey this year! :) Jeff's parents also took us to the Children's Museum which was very neat! It is a very hands-on place, so that was right up the boys' alley! It was so wonderful to get out of town for a bit, and the boys enjoy any vacation they can get!
