Thanksgiving is always a great time to reflect on what were thankful for. We love making our Thankful tree that looks so bare in the beginning of the month, but by the end of the month it is full of so many things we are blessed with.
I got to go with Makayla to one of her last primary activities. They went to the South Jordan historical center. They had a section that was all about the Bingham copper mine, so we took a picture of Makayla next to this miner to show Tyler since you know, he's a mining engineer and all. I am so lucky I got to go with Makayla on one of her last activities. Can you believe she will be in Young Women's next year?
This is my old boss Kalene. I ran into her on our way to the Utes game.
The girls finally got their dance pictures back, and oh my goodness, our girls are amazing, talented, and beautiful.
All three kids got to be in the primary program at church. This is Makayla's last program, and although I was sad about it, she was not. Makayla seems to think she is too old for primary or something? They all did a great job on their parts, and I especially loved that I got to sit with Tyler and enjoy it this year instead of planning it.
Craig and Terry stay at our house on weekends they come to the big city until their house is ready. Our kids decided to make their room into a hotel room, complete with towel animals. They are the cutest.
Its hard to tell in this picture, but Bella has her toy stuffed animal in her mouth and is lying on her back playing with it. It was so cute. I tell you, this dog has brought so much joy to our family.
She laid on my legs for the longest time like this while I gave her a pawsage (paw massage).
On our way to Thanksgiving dinner. My hair and makeup was on point this day.
Gotta love these little stink bugs in the backseat. They are the best kids and I am grateful every day they are mine!
This year for Thanksgiving we had "Soup and Sides" at Bill and Bonnie's house, then we came back to our house and had my family over for a traditional turkey dinner. I'm grateful for the holidays I get to spend with family.
Do you know one of the funnest things about Makayla? She likes to go Black Friday shopping with me. I remember years ago when I would go out by myself and see mom's shopping with their daughters and I longed for the day when I would get to do that with my girls, and now it's here!
All the shopping required a short breakfast break at Kneaders.
How do you know Christmas is close? The first major snowfall of the year. Brynnli was so excited to get on her snow clothes and spent hours playing outside.
Yep, our hearts and our thankful tree are full this year.
