We got to go to Utah this year to spend Thanksgiving with the Robertsons. Kefford had to work Wednesday morning so while we waited for him to get home I took Kenedy to the bank so that she could switch her savings account over to a checking. She is growing up!
On our way to Utah Kenedy took a picture of Avynlea and Rylee pretending to sleep cuddled with each other. Silly, cute girls.
While Emily and I were chatting and catching up hanging out in Isabelle's room, Avy came in and told us that Rylee was reading a book to Kefford. She took my phone and took a picture of the two of them which is pretty cute.
The next morning was Thanksgiving and I got up at my usual time, too early, and made a coconut cream pie, a chocolate coconut cream pie, a chocolate pie, a cheese ball and watergate salad. I made the frozen fruit salad cups the night before.
Our delicious spread of appetizers
Avynlea filled an empty Martinellis bottle with water and thought it was funny to drink out of it.
The traditional picture of Kefford and and Kenedy's traditional carving of the turkey.
Emily made the cutest place settings with scrabble tiles and had the table set so festive and cute.
After we ate our delicious meal and rested a bit us girls left to go Black Friday shopping! One of my favorite traditions!
We went to Old Navy and then Target and had fun finding fun deals. Avynlea and Isabelle were especially excited to be included in this tradition. Ryle had no interest in the shopping trip so she stayed at home with the boys.

The next day we went to a mall that had a miniature Harry Potter village set up in the middle. It was cute but mostly just a way for the Harry Potter universe to sell more overpriced merchandise. We had fun going in the wand shop and watched the guy perform a little magic and the kids liked the set up for Quidditch. It was nice but not something I would ever come back to.
That evening some of the gang went to go watch the new Justice League movie. Matt and Isabelle were not feeling well and stayed home, Rylee and Avynlea were too young and Emily and I had no desire to go. Emily and I played games at home with Rylee and Avynlea and that was a lot of fun.

On the way home Rylee enjoyed eating the orange she was given from Emily.
