Thanksgiving

Well this Thanksgiving, we went up to Heber to spend it with my family. It was so nice to be up there for the cool weather and enjoy family for the weekend. I love my family so much; it is so much fun when we get together. Everyone was able to make it excpet for Travis's Family and Ernie's family, but we still had a crowd. My mom made a wonderful meal, I have never seen Shawn pick at a turkey like he did. We played scum, rummy, and phase 10 that night, which is always so much fun. Keely had fun playing with her cousins, especially Ben and Emma's Abigal. She is like exactly one month younger and they were just following each other around. Here are some pictures.....

Aren't they so cute?


The day after Thanksgiving was my mom's birthday, and we made her a cake and sang to her. I am so grateful for my family and the love that they have for me and my little family. I don't know where I would be with out them.


I love this picture. That is Ben my brother, he is such a goof ball sometimes, and is usually the life of the party.


The day after Thanksgiving we went out to hunt for our Christmas Tree. Can't beat getting a permit for 10 bucks. My family has been going to the same spot for the past 3 years or so now, so we have made it kind of a tradition. It is so fun to get bundled up and cut down your own tree. We got a really good tree, small but good. We strapped it to our Jetta and took it back with us.

This is Keely's new thing - walking with your fingers. It seems that all she wants to do lately. She gets so made when you don't do it with her. It will be so nice when she will start walking.

This is Hailey, Kelli's girl. She loves to hold Keely.

Well that was our Thanksgiving weekend in a nutshell. Now it's time for Christmas. I love the holiday season. :)
