Kentucky/Illinois

So the weekeend before Turkey Day, we made a trip up to Paducah, Kentucky where Mike's granddad lives. Every year on this same weekend, Mike's uncles and his dad all go hunting in Illinois on his Great Aunt's land. Mike has never really been and decided to go this year since we really have no excuse not to since we live pretty close to Paducah.

So late Friday night after Mike got home from Clinicals we made the 2 hour drive up to Paducah where we met up with his dad and stepmom, his Uncle who lives in Michigan and his granddad. That next morning, early, Mike and his dad and unlce got up and took off to go hunting. Later that day, Linda (Mike's stepmom), Addison, and I drove up into Illinois to go visit with his great-aunt...the land they own and live on is gorgeous. It was perfect weather and Addison had a blast playing in all the leaves.....she could have stayed out there all day if she could have.

After spending some time there, Linda, Addie, and I left to go shopping...then later that night we had a "Pre-Thanksgiving" dinner with some of Mike's relatives before we headed back home that night. We had a good time and it was fun to meet some of Mike's relatives whom I have never met before.
