Blur of Holidays Now Passed

So much time has passed since my last post; I'm not quite sure where to begin. I guess it would make sense to start around Thanksgiving and our trip home to Mississippi. Jason and I seem to be growing more proficient at cramming a ton of events into one visit home. We went to Estill to see Robin and Shearer, ate Thanksgiving day lunch at Nanny and Pappy's, Thanksgiving dinner down at Dockery. We visited at Maw's the day after Thanksgiving and took several walks. Jason went hunting many times. Whew! Looking back, it seems like one intense whirlwind from the beginning of November to now, the end of January! And there doesn't seem to be any letting up. Since there is no way for me to do full postings on each topic and get myself caught up in this new year, I am going to post just a few of the best pictures from several of the things we did.

A trip to Estill, Mississippi, and a walk to explore the Indian mounds on family land.
