This year we went to Rupert for Thanksgiving! It was so much fun and so wonderful to be with our family. We ate tons of good food...
Talked and laughed way too much with the cousins at the "kids table"...
Waved at the adults across the room
and chatted away with Grandpa and Grandma.
After dinner all the boys fell asleep faster than you could say "tryptophan"
Meanwhile, us girls looked through old yearbooks of Grandpa and Grandma's high school years. In Grandma's senior yearbook, each person had a word or phrase that described them underneath their picture. Grandma's was "nice to know" which is definitely true and way better than the guy who was labeled "girl hater".
Isn't Grandpa a handsome high school sophomore?
Then we headed back to our house to shoot some pumpkins and clay pigeons.
Obviously, we played tons of games- hand & foot, dominos, crown five, and even a little poker.
On Friday, Dad, Josh and I headed to town to get our Dr Pepper fix (and forgot to get milk, the real purpose of our trip to town...whoops!) We also made Josh's week complete with a visit to Jack in the Box. He loves those $1 tacos... (siiick!)
This year, we have so very much to be grateful for and its hard to list everything, but here's a somewhat narrowed down list.... We're grateful for our wonderful families and the love that they show us and the new precious members that have joined our family and are on the way, we're grateful for friends who make us feel cool, we're grateful for the opportunity we have to live in a wonderful warm house, for Josh's business being more successful this year, and we are so very grateful for our membership in the church, that we're sealed together for eternity, and for Jesus Christ.
Hope ya'll had a Happy Thanksgiving!
