Turkey Day in Savannah

Happy Thanksgiving!
A couple of weeks ago, I went on my first big road trip to Savannah, GA.  That's where most of Daddy's family lives.  We went for Thanksgiving, which is this big holiday where basically everyone eats a lot of food.  I think it will be more fun for me next year when I get to try some turkey, too!  I got to see Aunt Ninners, Uncle Sean, GiGi, and Daideo again.  That's what I've decided to call my Savannah grandpa, pronounced Da-doe.  It's Gaelic for grandfather.  I also got to meet a whole bunch of other Hussey family!

We drove all night to get there, and I did great in the car!  I slept in my car seat almost all the way there and only woke up when Mommy and Daddy stopped to get gas and for a little while in the morning when we were almost there.  We got there on Wednesday morning and spent the day hanging out with Matey and Great-Grandaddy.  Then on Wednesday night, we had a special dinner to celebrate Aunt Ninner's birthday!

Great-Grandaddy is so funny!

Thursday was Thanksgiving, and we went to Daddy's uncle Tom's house with the whole Hussey clan.  I saw some family that I had already met before, like the Nalls and Uncle Michael and Aunt Joanie, but I also met a whole bunch of new people, including my cousin Ryleigh who is my size!

On Friday we went and hung out at the family beach house and I saw Tybee for the first time.  It was windy, but pretty!  Can't wait to see it again next summer when I can play in the water!


Then on Saturday Mommy, GiGi, Matey, and Sean and I went to the Westin on River Street in Savannah to see a bunch of Gingerbread houses that they have on display for Christmas.  It was super fun!
Sean really liked the Gingerbread Candyland

It was a really fun trip!  Mommy and Daddy said I did a great job with all the new people and excitement.  I was so tired from it all that the night after we got home I went down for a nap at 5:40 and slept all the way until 5 the next morning.  This Hussey family is fun but exhausting!  Guess I better get used to it!
