Virginia was. . .

. . .truly charming.
I would happily move there tomorrow, and traverse this romantic bike trail every day.
 Thanksgiving with my brother's family was truly perfect. We are so bountifully blessed.
 Having Caleb home for five consecutive days was truly wonderful. One of my favorite moments: day after Thanksgiving book reading and eating of leftover pie.
 Hunting for christmas trees was truly memorable. More on that to come.
 Bless this time of year, I love it so much!

Your hair is getting long again! I'm glad you all had such a good time. We'll certainly be missing you this holiday season (and always).

It looks like you had an amazing and content thanksgiving free of worry or cares. Your post makes me want to just throw everything out the window and make memories to share. Thanks for that

Nice to have a peek at the feast we missed! I LOVE that trail too. We missed you! How did you take that last photo?

Ah, I'm so glad you were in VA, I didn't know if you guys were going to join up with more fam or go it solo (i.e., with 40 friends.) They were reading Frances! Frances reminds me of being little. I never understood that tea set one until I read it this year. Chloe pointed at the screen (at Malan) and said, "Oooh - Best friend, best friend!" Maybe we need to hook up our skype cam again . . . Coming for Christmas? Or see you in May?

That's how I feel about Virginia. Especially with Chad having grown up there. I thought it was the most beautiful place. So in line with all the things I love. It was so fun to stay there and with you too in Beautiful Pittsburgh. I always had envisioned Pittsburgh as an ugly Steel Stack town. I had NO idea!
