We headed up to Highlands last week on Tuesday to celebrate Thanksgiving. We were all excited about a few days of rest and relaxation!
Samantha was especially ready for some fun in her new hat that perfectly matched her jacket!
On Wednesday we got up and attempted a hike. Unfortunately, the road was closed and then the trail was really overgrown so we basically got a nice walk up the road. But, the sun was shining and the company was good so that worked out just fine!
We then headed into town to grab lunch at Market Fresh and then hit up the ice skating! The kids were so excited and I think it lived up to the hype. I was pretty impressed with their skating skills by the end! They were making loops around the rink without the blue plastic things!
Santa wasn’t out yet but we hopped in his sleigh for a quick pic!
That afternoon the boys got their Thanksgiving prep on…
On Thanksgiving morning, we did our traditional Whiteside hike and it did not disappoint! Lots of icicles to see!
It was cold but sunny and a perfect day on the mountain.
Samantha had fun getting icicles and eating them like popsicles!
That afternoon we had a great meal. Thanks Lulu!
We then worked off our lunch with a walk to the waterfall and more icicles! Can’t beat it!
A very happy Thanksgiving!
