Thanksgiving!!!

This Thanksgiving we went to Utah to visit my sisters.  My brother, Glen, and his girlfriend came as well as my parents.  It was a lot of fun to visit with my family and to share some good memories together.  I am always grateful that my family is as close as we are and that we can have a good time together!  We were just missing Eric, Tami, and Gigi until the last day we were in town but at least we got to see them! I can't believe how big my baby niece is getting!!

Everyone at Thanksgiving dinner… er… Lunch! (Minus my brother-in-law, Stephen, who snapped this photo)

This year I attempted a recipe that my mother-in-law had for her homemade stuffing.  I spent all day the day before Thanksgiving baking bread and prepping everything to make the stuffing.  It was surprising easy to make after all the baking and prep work was done and it tasted SOOOO good, if I do say so myself. :D

Mmm... I love homemade bread!

The day after Thanksgiving we all went to Salt Lake City to go see the lights at Temple Square.  Steven and I went early with my sister Heather and her husband, Stephen (yes… That does get confusing when we are all together), so I could take some pictures of their oldest son who is getting baptized this month!  I had a good time and got some great photos that I'd LOVE to share!

Since when did my nephew get to be so old?!!?

What a cutie.  He has gotten so old so fast!  I can hardly believe it!  He is getting baptized on December 28th so we will be making another trip down to Utah to see his baptism.  I am so excited for him and his decision to choose to become a disciple of Christ!!

Of course I have to share some pictures with my sweet husband while we were at Temple Square as well!

Also, can't forget the wonderful women in my life!!!

My mother, my sisters Heather, and Holly!

Of course there is my niece, Chloe, who just adores her grandpa!

D'aww

Overall it was a great weekend!

Now we are back in Rexburg where just a day or so after our returned we were welcomed with the first REAL snow fall of the season.  Today we experienced a massive power outage but I am grateful that our power came on only after about 3 hours of it going out.  All my classes were cancelled so Steven and I stayed home and put up our Christmas tree.  I will have to post more about that next time.

Take care!
