A wonderful Thanksgiving!

Almost all of Todd's family and my mom came down to visit us here in TX for Thanksgiving! We were so excited for them to come. I think we counted down for a month. We loved having everyone come! We really missed Nic and Nichole and kids who couldn't come. Having them here would have made everything SO complete, we understand it wasn't in the cards this year, but we'll get them down here sooner or later ;)

We managed to have a lot of fun. We didn't plan too many activities, but we did see a little of the Dallas area. We played, relaxed and most of all just hang out as a fam. That's one thing I really miss about being so far away is all of the good family time.

We did some of this:

And this: The boys loved stabbing the turkey with the needle.

Initiated Tyler into the family: We're sure lucky that he loves Heather enough to stick around! :-)

Grandma shooting the potato gun:

These two have unbeatable scores on their respective Just Dance games, so of course that required a dance off...

We did more of this:

and this:

We made it to the temple one day which was great!

I discovered what a pomegranate looks and tastes like:

Learned how to make homemade rolls! This was a huge highlight for the day because Teresa nor I had ever done it before and they turned out delicious!!

Played Don't Be a Dork (thought of you Nic the whole time ;-) )

Went to the airport and watch the planes...Todd gave a quick rundown of how everything works.

Still playing Don't Be a Dork:

Airport fun:

And the best Thanksgiving feast ever!! (to date that is)

Happy Thanksgiving!

I am so very grateful for our family! I love each and every one of them. I'm so happy that they could come down and visit, and we truly missed the ones who couldn't. Thank you all for a wonderful holiday!

Now for the countdown of Grandma B coming for Christmas! (14 days!)
