"Tarping" is a holiday tradition in my family. The large, very slippery tarp is tied to the back of the truck; there is one rope to hold on to. Whoever gets everyone else off is the winner.
This is Jack with his cousin, Elsie (16 mos).

Holidays in Idaho
Georgia
We spent Thanksgiving "camping" (in my parents' 5th wheel) in Ft. Benning, GA. My brother's boot camp graduation was the day before Thanksgiving.
Driving Across the Country -- November 2007
My parents, Jack and I took a week to leisurely drive from Idaho to Georgia. For having to be in his car seat all day every day for a week, Jack was such a good boy!

Cousins
My sister, Jaimie, had her second baby on November 2, so we went to visit the day after the new baby girl was born. Jack met his two cousins for the first time, and my sister and her husband got to meet Jack. Elsie is my sister's first child; she is 15 months old now. She and Jack are nearly the same size!
