Thanksgiving Weekend

We had a great Thanksgiving weekend! It is our year to go with my fam so we packed up early Thursday and headed down to Sterling. My aunt did it this year and we had so many we had to go to the church! It was different but it was nice we put the kids in the nursery and we could all visit. There was so much food, and I felt guilty eating any because we didn't have to take ANYTHING! I think they had about 50 pies no lie and of course I tried three of them. My mom made this white chocolate cherry pie and it was delicious. We left there and all needed a nap.My sister came late so we had our own Thanksgiving that my mom had made for us. We ate yet MORE turkey and stuffing for dinner. And my sister brought the BEST pecan pie, I think I ate the whole thing;) We then ditched the kids with the grandparents and went and saw 4 Christmases and I LOVED it! I laughed the entire time. I am so happy this time of year to be with FaMiLy NON sToP...and all the fun traditions we all have. Friday I was able to meet some old friends(Tamber and Marcee) for lunch it was so fun to catch up with them. That night Manti had a light parade and then Santa Clause goes to the high school for the kids. Well we waited in line for an hour and Reddek was so tired but he kept wanting to sit on Santa's lap so we stayed and when we were only about half way through the line, but had been waiting for an hour and a half we left. We knew he was going to cry and not really sit on his lap anyway. (aren't we rude parents?) (
We got to see cousins we haven't seen FOREVER!!!

I use to babysit all these little ones when they were babies and now they are almost as big as me! It was so fun to see their family.
Jade and Reddek LOVED playing with "WoGaN"...he had to leave us Thursday night to ride bulls on Friday and Saturday in St. George.
My wonderful parents that put us all up for the L O N G weekend and of course babysat the whole time!

The weekend ended with us leaving Reddek with Jason's sister Kori and us going on a fun muddy four-wheeler ride. We saw lots of people getting trees and we kind of missed it but we decided to bag it and go to a tree lot, where we found the PERFECT TREE! (like everybody else) It looks lots better in person, but pictures will work!
Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving! And I am THANKFUL FOR ALL OF YOU! ..
