Back to Thanksgiving

I need to back up a little bit and tell about our wonderful Thanksgiving because I was just so very thankful the whole entire week.  It's taken me a little while to get some pictures together because it turns out that I didn't take a single picture.  I had to beg, borrow and steal pictures from everyone else in the family.  LOL

Joshua was home from his mission, Tanner isn't leaving on his mission until Dec. 17th (tomorrow) and Grandma stayed with us as well.   Jared, Tori and Boston came to stay with us for the whole week too so we had the WHOLE FAMILY HOME.  YAY!!!    Everyone wanted to hold Boston all the time, and I mean all the time.  He was so fun.


Thanksgiving Day was perfect.  The guys all went to play football in the morning and then we had our big dinner in the afternoon.  Grandma and Grandpa came and so did Christian Hill and 2 of his friends.  It really was nice.


Other fun things we did during the week included bowling, family pictures, movies, games, puzzles, and eating out.


The Sunday after Thanksgiving was Joshua's homecoming talk at church and Tanner's farewell talk at church.  They both did an excellent job and I was definitely on an emotional roller coaster.  After church we had friends and family over to the house for some lunch.

To finish off the week, the night before Jared and Tori had to go home, we decorated the Christmas tree.  


What more can I say?  How thankful I am for the gospel in my life, for my beautiful family, and for all the blessings the Lord has given me.  Happy Late Thanksgiving.  Below is a picture I stole from Grandma Ginia.  I think it's so cute and wanted to share with everyone.  :-)
