Thanksgiving in New Jersey

For Thanksgiving this year we made the trek out to Sussex, NJ, which is where Casey lived until he was in middle school.  He still has some relatives who live there, so his parents, Nick, Renee and Jeff and the kids, and we all drove out to celebrate Thanksgiving there.  It was wonderful to be with Casey's family and his relatives, and we enjoyed our time very much.

We arrived Wednesday night and had dinner with Casey's cousin Sharon, her husband Jon and their kids Katelyn and Jon.  We stayed with them while we were there, and our kids had a great time with them.  On Thanksgiving morning we went to church and then had Thanksgiving dinner at Uncle Casey and Aunt Henny's house.  It was a group of about 24 and we had a delicious dinner and a nice time catching up with everyone.

On Friday we spent a little time with Casey's cousin Rich and his wife Kim and their kids.  They own a bakery/deli, so we picked up some goodies from there as well!  We went to High Point State Park to enjoy the beautiful view and see the monument, which is the highest point in NJ.  We spent the rest of the day just hanging out, going to a park, and also getting a tour of Jon's fire station (definitely a highlight for Peter!).

We are thankful for safe travels, for Casey's wonderful family and for a very blessed Thanksgiving!

I forgot to take any pictures on Thanksgiving, so these are all from our Friday activities:
