Thanksgiving Fun 1


Yay! I got to have some of my family come up for Thanksgiving again this year. So excited to host Thanksgiving again. I love having my family come to stay with me, it's the best and I definitely do not take it for granted! Emily and her family, Andrew and Stephanie and Kirk were the lucky ones to come. On Thanksgiving morning I had the kids put together the turkey place settings craft I bought while Andrew and Kenedy made Bacon Pancakes.





At 11:00 we set out the Hor D'euorvers and it was some yummy food we had. I am pretty sure everyone enjoyed eating that good stuff!


I had the girls help set the tables to get ready for dinner and Kenedy and Avynlea helped me roll out the rolls.

McCall part two

The next morning in mcCall we woke up to a beautiful winter wonderland. I love the look of freshly fallen snow, t is so beautiful and white and clean. I managed to get Avynlea and Rylee outside so I could get a picture. The kids didn't really play much outside in the snow but that is OK they had plenty of other things to do to keep themselves busy and occupied.

I heard Rylee up in the loft rustling some papers and when I called up to her to ask what she was doing she called back down, "I am reading the Bible, the Holy Bible". She is so funny, she then proceeded to spend some time trying to find the exact middle of the book. 
Of course we went back to the club so the kids could play in the pool some more. This time Whitney and Dustin showed up with Madison and we all loved watching Madison in the water. She is so cute and I could not help taking a lot of pictures of her chubby cheeked cuteness!





















The girls decided to try playing a game of chicken. With Avynlea on Kenedy and Rylee on Emilee is was a very unsuccessful attempt. :)




After the pool fun the kids showered and changed and then we headed up to the cabin to spend one last day with family in McCall. We had to leave earlier Sunday morning because the kids had their Primary Program to participate in so we made sure to spend as much time as we could this day.
Avynlea really loves spending time with Tayvia and spent most of the day with this cutie, holding her and loving her and playing with her. They are so cute!


I told Rylee the day before that she could not go in the hot tub with her cousins. I said you already went swimming and besides you did not bring your bathing suit. Sneaky little Rylee made sure to leave her swimming suit in the car after we got done at the club so that I could not use that as an excuse. So I let her go in the hot tub with her cousins and we all thought the three piles of clothing on the bathroom floor were pretty funny.








Kenedy enjoyed loving on Madison.




When it was time to leave Emilee and Avynlea wanted a picture with the cute little snowman built by Brits kids.


Kenedy, Emilee and I thought it was fun that we had the same boots and matchingish shirts so we had Avynlea take a picture for us.

On Sunday morning I had the girls shower so I could put curlers in their hair to be ready for church. Unfortunately Avynlea got carsick on the way home and threw up luckily in a bag we had brought. It was pretty gross but I am glad it stayed in the bag this time.


We had a fun weekend and are really glad to have the opportunity to get away for some fun family time!
