The trip back to NC was nice. Seeing family is always a good thing. My sister, Emily, and her boyfriend, Bradley, came down one night to play with baby Nolan. They had great fun. Emily and Nolan played the piano together, and she made him giggle by tickling his toes. Of course my mom was ecstatic to see her grandson. And, she was able to do her favorite thing--rock and sing Nolan to sleep. I know he enjoys it because we seldom treat him to the pleasure. 
Although I enjoy going back to North Carolina, Georgia is my home now. When Nolan and I got home Rich was waiting for us :). There is nothing like his sweet face after a long drive. However, the next day we had to leave for Alabama. We got to spend time with Rich's extended family, the Ritcheys. They are such a sweet family. I'm so glad I married into a loving family. And today,we leave for NC again! This time to celebrate Thanksgiving. We truly have a lot of reasons to be thankful.
