Thanksgiving Weekend

On our way to Utah to spend Thanksgiving with the Miles family..
Max's new favorite thing is holding Teeg's hand in the car. It makes me smile..so adorable.

We couldn't have asked for more beautiful weather. The kids had fun playing outside.

Steven had the turkey do a little dance for us before roasting in the oven..

Our delicious feast..

That night some how I convinced Elizabeth and Becky that they wanted to experience the black Friday madness with me! We left at 10:00 that night and got home at 1:00 a.m. It was quite the adventure..especially since it was their first time. We may have spent at least half an hour picking out our own Christmas jammies. :) It was fun..so glad they came!

That next morning we reunited with our Virginia friends!!

Hutch's mom & Katie were so sweet to make us breakfast. It was so much fun to catch up. 

{Yes..we only have one child in this photo because the other two weren't cooperating.}

I can't even begin to say how much i miss having these girls close by! Why can't we keep our friends with us wherever we go?

We made a trip to Temple Square..
It sure was crowded. We were constantly doing a kid count.

Max & dad had fun making faces at each other. That baby was in a silly mood.

Trying to take a family photo..but nope Max isn't done making faces..

 i guess that's better? 

 Camdyn jumped at the chance to pet a giant puppy..like she always does.

..And Max was upset that he missed his opportunity because he got nervous. i am a mean mom..i didn't let him chase the dog down the hill. sorry buddy!

Love this time of year. I have much to be grateful for!
