This Thanksgiving was pretty nice. I ate a lot and slept a lot - What more could you ask for =). It has been awhile since my last update though so I have a lot of stuff to catch up on. My Flight last saturday with my instructor went really well. He was impressed on how well I did for not having flown for 5 weeks. That was pretty cool. On Monday Allie's Brother Sam came up from North Carolina and he hung out with us for a few days until Thanksgiving. He stayed at my house at night and Allie had a bunch of things she did with him during the day. On Tuesday I took him and Allie flying. We flew over Downtown Lynchburg for some sight seeing and then flew over to Smith Mountain Lake I think he really enjoyed doing that. I had to work during the day while he was here though other then when we went flying so I didn't do all the other fun stuff Allie and Him did. But after we went flying on Tuesday we drove down to Roanoke and spent the evening down there and had dinner, then went to see a movie It was pretty cool but we didn't end up getting back until pretty late. Wednesday I worked all day and then went over to Allie's House and she made Sam, Becca and I Dinner then we watched a movie. It was a nice relaxing night. Thursday morning The three of us got in the car and drove down to Allie's Dad's house for Thanksgiving. Her Dad had a hernia surgery on Monday so he was still in bed for most of that day. He was having a little bit difficult of a recovery. The rest of us did the Thanksgiving Meal cooking though. I ended up making the Mashed Potatoes. Her Dad was able to come down and join us for the meal but his appetite wasn't really there so he didn't eat much. We all felt pretty bad for him. Keep in in prayer if you think about it. I haven't heard how he is doing as of right now though. Anyway we all had a pretty relaxing time there that day. On Friday Allie wanted to go shopping for some crazy reason so Sam and I ended up going with her. It was kind of upsetting though because we weren't very productive at all. We barely bought anything and they didn't have specific things Allie wanted. So we probably walked the equivalent of about 10 miles in swarms of people for not much to show for. I think we all had some fun though. Saturday morning Allie and I headed back to Lynchburg. Allie had a lot of homework to do and wanted to get back so she could hopefully get done what she needed to by the time classes started again Today. Before going straight home though we stopped to have an oil change done on her car and get her tires rotated, that didn't take too long though so that was nice. The rest of the day I just relaxed and caught up on some e-mails and stuff. Sunday was a pretty typical day, I went to church and then to lunch over at the Donnebergs. Allie didn't stay long over there though because she wanted to get back to her house to do some more homework, I stayed for a little while after she left but then joined her back at her house for awhile after that. Allie was doing really well though and was able to get one of her research papers done. She really felt relieved after that was done. Becca didn't get back until about 7:00 or so last night, she was out meeting with someone but after she got home her and I watched some more Lois and Clark episodes. We are really close now to finishing season 3. I ended up staying there last night until about 11:30 but we had fun. So I think that just about covers my Thanksgiving - sure show a lot to be thankful for with all I was able to accomplish during that time. It was pretty nice.
