THANKSGIVING IN JACKSON AT THE BELHAVEN ALUMNI HOUSE

Scott and Rebecca continue to guide Tyler (7), Eben (4) and Tate Fox (2) with great joy and love. Because of a visit to North Alabama just before Thanksgiving, we decided to meet in Jackson, MS at the Belhaven Alumni house next to campus and to have the whole family for Thanksgiving there! This helped them break up a long trip and it helped cut about 3 hours of driving time off our end, too!

The house is huge and with 5 Belhaven alums in the family (Breck '64, Scott and Dayton '98, Rebecca and Karen 'Y2K) we got the whole house and had a blast.
Robbie is the ONLY non-Belhave alum in the family...but since she organized it, got the groceries and did lots of cooking, they let her stay.

We also met with the kids in a "private meeting" and decided that the house would be the headquarters for CAMP NONA AND POP-POPS this coming summer!

This is a picture of our meeting after the unanimous vote! Tater boy will be house-broken in January, so camp is looking good. We called Anna and she's "thumbs-up" for the idea. She hosted us in Chicago last year and was our "tour guide", so Scott's three will host us in Jackson, New Orleans and the Gulf Coast this coming summer for "CAMP"!

The kids had a blast playing hide-n-seek through the house and it was just a fun place to be. We went fishing in the Belhaven pond across the street, and just played games, cooked and had lots of fun. Here's a little movie that Eben wanted me to take and "post it on the blog, Nona"!

And here we are with the kids at the Belhaven fountain. We really did have a great time. We're so grateful to have a really fun family. I guess if we lived actually close to each other we'd not get any work done!
