A Little Pre Thanksgiving Fun

Well well, seems like just yesterday it was fall and we were tailgating and celebrating Halloween.  Now the Thanksgiving holiday is behind us and we are screaming towards Christmas.  It seems like this year is determined to sprint by before any of us can slow down enough to appreciate it.

Before we get to our Thanksgiving celebration and trip to Cincinnati (in a blog post forthcoming), it is worth looking back at a few fun outings we've had over the past few weeks.

Our friends Katie and Jeff Enger and Bob and Lindsey Horner came down to experience an Arkansas gameday experience.  In addition to that Ryan Young flew in from Cincinnati (well - technically he flew in from Charlotte - but what Delta doesn't know won't hurt them).  The Razorbacks played South Carolina in a pretty big SEC matchup and we did our best to show them what Fayetteville had to offer.




We followed that weekend up with a trip to Orlando to visit Nicki's family.  Her aunt and uncle live in a beautiful home five minutes from Disney.  We took in Epcot Center (my first trip to Disney ever) and had a wonderful visit with her family.  Their home is located on a man made water ski lake.  As you will see - Nicki is quite the water skier.  You may be wondering where all the pictures of me water skiing are...well...you see there are sports I was meant to do and those I was not meant to do.  Let's just say that water skiing is one of those I was not meant to do.

This was about as close to water skiing as I got - this is me asking advice from Nicki's cousin Kelly...

And this is me slolem skiing - believe that?  Okay no, this is Nicki's cousin Steven showing off...
