Thanksgiving Break

Well Thanksgiving break is over.. it was good while it lasted, but always goes too fast.  Travis and I headed out to Goodland with Sam and the puppies on Wednesday morning.  It was a pretty good drive, Sam slept the whole way out there!  I thought that was going to be my challenge keeping him entertained for 2 1/2 to 3 hours.. NOPE.. the dogs needed the entertainment!  LOL  :o)  We made it a little past Russell and decided to switch drivers because Tink was about to have a stroke from worry as I was not in the drivers seat like I was supposed to be!  Once we made the switch.. 

Everything was golden!  :o)  two happy puppies!  Sam started fussing to get out of his carseat about 2 blocks away from Grandma and Grandpa's.  I'm good with that timing!  LOL 

We got there and Grandpa wanted to take us to the local dealership to look at a Yukon.. we have been looking for a new vehicle for about 2 years now, trying out different makes to see what we liked.  The dealership there had a 2002 Yukon Denali.  So we went to look.. not thinking we were actually going to do anything.  I'm fairly nervous when it comes to spending large amounts of money and getting into payments.  But when a good deal comes I guess sometimes you just have to take a breath and take the plunge! 

We didn't sign the paperwork till Friday, but it was too good a deal to pass up!  The price was decent for what it is worth, and we really needed to trade off Travis' jeep since it had 176,000 miles on it, not a bad Jeep and definitely got us pretty far!  Thanks to Denny and Marcina who took such excellent care of it before they gave it to Travis! 

Thanksgiving was good, not a lot happened.  Just hung out most of the day.  Sam played and got to hang out with Grandma.  The change in house didn't seem to bother him too much, we had some of his toys and his bouncer we took along so I guess he had a little bit of home with him.  I gave him his bottle later in the afternoon, and we passed out right after!

A little messy  :o)  but still adorable! 

We left Goodland on Saturday.  My dad drove my jeep back with Tink and Mia and Travis and I rode in the Yukon with Sam.  I asked dad if he was a glutton for punishment?!  He volunteered to take the dogs!  This is what he gets... 

  He said there was no crying from Tink.. she just wanted to sit in his lap!  I know I spoil my dogs.. but dang!  I want to know how he gets a silent ride?  LOL  Happy he did though.. it can be a long 3 hours sometimes!  We made it back to the house in one piece.  Sam slept for about an hour and a half.  Then woke up.  He played for about 30 min and then he was BORED!  I got in the back with him and we played for the next hour and I gave he a bottle.  He was much better with the interaction!  I know he was just ready to be out of that car seat! 

Travis and dad cleaned out Travis' jeep and dad took it back to Goodland.  Sam played and I put his clothes and stuff away.  I come back into the livingroom to him passed out under his gym.

So I put him to bed for a nap! 

He got to go out to Nana and Papaws later that day :o)  Uncle William was there helping put up Chrismas lights.  I love seeing the white lights!  Makes me excited for Christmas!!
