I must be on a blogging roll of some sort...and it's not going to stop any time soon, since I promised my mother-in-law LOTS of pictures now that we have a fun new toy to play with and figure out! (Have we told you guys THANK YOU enough times?! We LOVE our early Christmas present! Thank you, thank you, thank you!)
We got to spend the Thanksgiving weekend in Eden, Utah, with Russ's family, where more memories were made and recorded. (one thing's for sure with Russ's family: NO memory will ever be forgotten with everyone's cameras going all the time, and Mark's video camera! It's great!)
Here are some of our favorite memories and pictures of Thanksgiving day: *clogging up the kitchen sink and having it torn apart a couple of times to try and fix it - to no avail, and having to wash all dishes in the laundry room. (oh, and getting to eat Thanksgiving dinner on paper plates to help out the dish load!) It was the easiest dish washing day after feeding 15+ people ever! *Allie's "incident" with the airplane in the field. *Eating the yummy pies before eating Thanksgiving dinner. *Discovering the potato SMASHER with Aunt Sparklie! *Olin spilling a big cup of Diet Coke ALL over the kitchen floor in the middle of the sink mess, and then running to Lora's arms for safety! *Russ and I discoving that Guitar Hero is actually kind of addicting, and now both want one! *The YUMMY food...thank you to everyone that cooked, it was delish! *The fun company we got to enjoy...it wouldn't have been the same without any one of you!
We also got to sneak in a short visit to the beautiful Salt Lake City temple to view the thousands of lights, and Jackson and Max LOVED seeing Mary and Joseph and the baby Jesus floating in the water at the refelction pool...they thought that was really cool. No matter how many times you have seen Temple Square, it's still just as cool the 100th time or the 1st.
We are so thankful for our family members, on both sides, and we look forward to more great memories!

Holy cow. I cannot believe all that I've missed by not checking your blog in a few weeks! The second picture in this post is awesome, the background doesn't even look real. Let's talk soon!
The scenery is beautiful! And yes, guitar hero is very addicting so don't even start!
Jamie Zobrist took our family pictures. It was $200 for 1 1/2 hours and that also included a disc with all of the pictures and her editing. She took a ton of pictures of the big group as well as all the little families.
Wow you have been busy as usual. Looks like you had lots of fun and a great Thanksgiving. I need your address to send you a Christmas card. I'm glad you're having fun and your kids are adorable.

Looks like you have been having a blast lately. I've been meaning to call, but haven't. Call me when you come to Utah again. We hope to come to Vegas and see you guys when Jeff's crazy school schedule slows down. One more year. Yeah!! Love ya
Looks like someone is taking some great pictures with that new camera! I actually got Ben and I a new one for Christmas . . . . maybe I should open mine early too, I think I just might do that! Thanks for the idea.
I love the pics! You always look so good in pictures. You are so photogenic. Oh, I guess you are just hot all the time!
