Thanksgiving in KC!

I always forget how quickly time goes by between Thanksgiving and Christmas - it seems like just yesterday we were in Kansas City!

Keith had the opportunity to travel with Connor by himself from Atlanta to Kansas City - he said Connor did great so kudos to him!  I met them up there after going to Tampa, FL for my friends Kristen and Christopher's beautiful wedding!  It was so fun to catch up with my college friends!


In Kansas City, we stayed with Connor's great grandparents - "Nana" and "Papa Russ."  Connor loved playing outside when it was warm enough and exploring the nearby parks.


On Tuesday night, we got together with the Slagle side and had a blast hanging out with them and Connor loved running around the private room with the other kids!


Thanksgiving was spent at Aunt Beth's new house - where we played, watched football, cooked, ate, and everything in between!  We also celebrated Christmas and Great Grandpa Russ' 90th birthday all in one day!


The flight home with Connor was the worst we've had so far :/  We thought he was becoming a pro-flyer but he decided to scream 90% of the time and the other 10% was spent turning on and off the overhead lights (while accidentally hitting the flight attendant call button a handful of times lol).  The only way to get through that flight was with a sense of humor - and a glass of wine when we got home!


When we returned, I packed back up and headed out to Vegas with my sister Courtney and mom to celebrate mom's 60th birthday!  We had so much fun walking around the strip, shopping, trying new restaurants, seeing the Michael Jackson One cirque du soleil show, and exploring the Hoover Dam!  What a great girls getaway - we're already starting to plan our next girls adventure! :)


All 3 of us are finally back together and preparing for Christmas - which will be here before we know it!


Here are some photos from our trip to KC:
