Finally... my Thanksgiving post...

I'm FINALLY posting about our Thanksgiving... it seemes like it was a long time ago! Well... it kinda was... we had our Thanksgiving on Wednesday. I did it the day before so the kids that had other places to go wouldn't have to try to shove down two Thanksgiving dinners! It worked out great for us... It's Thanksgiving.... so where's ALL the food?!?
Well... here it is!

Yay... everyone is happy!



It was pretty easy getting food ready cuz all the girls brought lots of yummy stuff! I love it when they are old enough to be great cooks and bring yummy stuff to share!


Oh yeah...

More food... we had plenty!

After our tummies were full... the girls got a game of Phase 10 going...

While the guys watched the Suns game!

We had a couple of November birthdays to celebrate... so during half time we did the birthday stuff... (notice the hutch is back together... I was still shoving dishes in it Wednesday morning!)


There was NO way we were gonna eat a BIG birthday cake after a huge meal... So here is Erin and Dalin with their birthday cupcakes!

Making a BIG wish!

Then it was time for presents...

He's ready for sports!

Mmmmmm. blue frosting!


On Thanksgiving day... Trent did our ward turkey bowl... then he went out of town. Mike and I went to a movie... then did some shopping. No crowds... it was great! And get this... we didn't want leftovers, so for dinner we had Thanksgiving lasagna! After that we went to our friends house for pie... we stayed home on black Friday and did more work on the house.... Having 5 days off in a row is a RARE occassion for us and we thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Monday came WAY too soon!

About Me

My photo
Hi there everyone! I've noticed that a lot of people have a little life story on their blogs. So, always wanting to keep up with the latest BLOG trends, I've decided to put on a little blurb about my life for anyone that's interested. BUT, so no one is bored or has heard it all, I've put MY LIFE in ORIGINAL story form... Once upon a time there was a brown eyed girl, born of goodly parents, who set out on a journey. She traveled for a very VERY long time, through desert, mountains and forests and along the way she brought with her 6 wonderful treasures. But, alas, there were dark times, battles and dragons along the way, but she kept on going, with her treasures giving her strength and direction. Then in the desert, she met a blue eyed handsome prince, who had also been on a long long journey, and he had 2 treasures. So as you might have already guessed the ending.... the brown eyed girl and the blue eyed prince along with their treasures and a bunch more treasures, lived very happily ever after! Life is GOOD! It's party time now!
