Found in my email

I’m cleaning up my gmail account and found this email I sent myself last year. Every year, Thanksgiving is a big deal. Lots of travelling as we make the yearly trip to my Great Grandma as well as trips to both families.
Here is the email I sent myself to remind myself to blog about it last year.
Thanksgiving Weekend
- 470 miles.
- Three cities.
- Three stiches.
- Three throw ups.
- 1 festival of lights parade.
- Unlimited calories.
- Can’t wait until next year.
I remember the stitches. Geetle fell about 5 minutes after walking into Grandma V and Papa’s house. Since she was tucking her hands inside her overalls, her chin hit before anything else. We had to rush her to the hospital for the three stitches. I don’t even remember which combination of us resulted in 3 throw ups.

I just stumbled upon your blog while searching for the calories in a target soft pretzel. I just had to share a funny story. My friend is a realtor and a single mom which worked out great since I was house hunting at the time. I love old houses and found a house built in 1890 on 1 + acres that was adorable (by the picture on the website). My friend and I decided to pack the kids in my SUV and go check it out after work. We got the kids interested in a DVD since the house was about 30 minutes away. The house was in an older part of town so, there were a lot of curves and turns. Well I pulled into the driveway and my friends daughter said, “Mommy I don’t feel good” then I hurd burp and it all came up. I jumped out of the car to get my daughter then burp it all came up again. My car stunk for a week even after we made a quick stop at target for new clothes and a few clean up items.
