Beth's November visit and Football

 Beth came for a visit last weekend (Nov 4th and 5th). It was so great to see her. Ross stayed at the Belmont Pet Resort. Its like a hotel for dogs. They have private rooms and play areas including outdoor and indoor spaces for dogs. We think Ross liked it, but he was exhausted we he got home.

I picked Beth up Saturday at the airport at 1:00. We then headed to Cookout to get some lunch. Cookout is a drive-up restaurant. Similar to Sonic but much cheaper and less...classy. ;) The closest Sonic is like 30 minutes away by the way.. Anyways. So at Cookout you can get a cheeseburger and 2 sides for like $6.00. They have sides like fries, hush puppies, and onion rings. They also have sides like chicken nuggets and a bacon wrap. Beth was impressed. Ha.

Then we went home and relaxed. The Estes girls try to rest whenever possible. Dane doesn't really understand this type of relaxation.

Saturday night we went to Satisfaction to watch the Razorbacks and the LSU/Alabama game. They have the best atmosphere, the best pizza, and the best music. A few of Dane's friends met us there. I think there were like 30 people from the Div school there.

Dane's friend Allan was supporting his team - UVA.

 Dane's friend Raygan supporting his team - UCLA.

 Desert. Yes. Please.

Sunday we slept in, ate some lunch then went to church at night. The church had the most moving communion service I have ever been to. They have a band and the band lead the songs throughout the liturgy. I had never seen communion done that way. It was beautiful.

After church we got some dinner at our favorite Chapel Hill restaurant Top of the Hill. After dinner we watched a movie on demand Janie Jones. The movie turned out to be really good. It was about a rock star Dad who had to take in a daughter he had never met and how she kinda saved him from himself.

Monday morning I took Beth to the airport at 5am to catch her 6am flight. It was so nice of her to come see me. I love love love sister time. 

We are now 1.5 weeks from Thanksgiving. I am very excited. My parents have new floors and new living room furniture. I can't wait to see it all. I am also ready to see my extended family and Dane's family.

I miss my Gran. I feel like I am not being honest when I say I am excited about Thanksgiving. I am excited about Thanksgiving. But I also miss Gran. Everyday.
