A Thanksgiving Journey
Pack our bags, load the car to drive and drive some more
On major highways, trucks and traffic, roads with tolls galore

Twist and turns and familiar sights throughout the 6 hour ride
Two dogs packed in the back real tight, whining to be at our side

Stopping at rest stops, found a great parking spot
Chilly..should have grabbed my jacket…but the car was so hot!
Dogs enjoying a little break in the grass
Holding them tight on leashes as the other cars pass
Back in the car, checking time on our GPS
Mother calling …we'll press faster going northwest
Over the state lines and getting so near
Just called dad, he's icing the beer!
One last turn and we finally pull up
Grabbing bags and food and letting loose our pups
Mom and Dad waiting at the door
Smiling faces, giving us the royal tour
They painted this, they fixed this, they added that
Mom went to Talbots and got a deal on a brand new hat
Christmas Santas already poking up here and there
Dogs running in to the kitchen….poor cat beware!
Dad helping us with bags up the stairs
House smells good like cinnamon and pears
Here at last, let Thanksgiving begin
Because in just three days we'll start the journey again!
