We had the most fabulous Thanksgiving day.  It was perfect.  I loved hosting and cooking my very first Thanksgiving turkey.  It did not feel like a lot of work at all, of course, I love entertaining, cooking and baking.  This is my new favorite holiday!  We loved having some of my family join us.  Becca, Clint, Sophia, Krista and Willis were our guests.  My parents went to Denver to be with my sister, Erika, and her family.  Tim's parents were in Cancun, Mexico enjoying the beach.  We were on our own this year.  It was easy going, simple and yummy.  We spent the day watching football and preparing the food.  Becca made a lot of the food and Krista pitched in a dessert.  We ate lunch around 2:30 pm and then spent the rest of the day watching more football and movies. 

We have so much to be thankful for.  Our family wrote all the things we were thankful for on circles we punched out.  I then had my friend, Jaimy, sew them together for me.  We strung them from the ceiling as a little Thanksgiving decoration.  {pictured in the top picture above}.  I loved spending the month reflecting on our many blessings...Happy Thanksgiving!

happy thanksgiving










We had a fabulous Thanksgiving. We always spend this holiday with Tim's side of the family since my family dominates much of our Christmas time. We went to Logan and had dinner with the Carver clan.  It was so fun to be with family.  These pictures make me so grateful that my kids have cousins they love so much!  We headed back to Salt Lake and spent the rest of the evening hanging out at Grandpa Kent and Grandma Ann's house. The next day we all went and saw Tangled, it was cute and funny!  Payton and Parker spent the ENTIRE day at Jones's AND they got to sleepover. They loved it {and so did we because we were painting!}  We had a fabulous Thanksgiving weekend {the Utes win and the bedroom makeover may have had something to do with that too!}

 So much to be grateful for...
