We are so THANKFUL

Thanksgiving snuck up on us and we were so excited to share it with Jason's side of the family this year, it is always such a party when we all get together with all the cousins!! We are so insanely blessed with the best family! We woke up that day and got all that we needed to bring cooked and got the kids all ready! Owen was so excited to eat him some turkey, I think it is all we heard about for the whole week. So it was a stinking good thing when the day finally came!

We got all ready and attempted a family picture, with Maisy even! it was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be and most of our pictures turned out like this....

We then headed out the door to our trip to Grandma and Poppas! Which is really only a half hour away but when you are with 3 excited little boys feels like a lifetime!
Grandma had the tables all ready to go including a tiny table for Cole and Avi, they are only 2 weeks apart and the bestest friends!

We all got our eating on and within ten minutes all the kids had lost interest in the food and were too excited to get together and play! Grandma had set up a ping pong game in her basement where she had filled cups with prizes, if the kids could bounce the ball in the cup they would win the prize that was in that cup! the kids thought this was great and we literally didn't see them for a couple hours!

As for us "adults" we sat around learning new games.. having interesting conversations about games when we were younger and other things that were questionable and enjoying each others company! can I just tell you how grateful I am to have a family who gets along so well!!

and that was our lovely thanksgiving, I have so much to be thankful for, my family, friends, health, our neighborhood, home, the gospel, the list goes on and on and on!
Jettsen also had his first pack meeting for scouts! He was so darn excited and I was so happy for him although through the whole thing I had to hold back my tears.. only for the fact of, where did my baby go?? He is so happy that the scout master is Uncle Josh and that he gets to start working on his pinewood derby car!

And while I am on the subject of Jett I want to document a funny incident! Today Jett had his bishop interview for his baptism, the bishop was going over everything and was telling Jett how he needed to be fully submerged for it to count.. well as we were leaving the church Jett turned to Jason and says.. "If you drown me at my baptism, when I am resurrected the first thing I am going to do when I come back is ... punch you in the face!" we laughed way too hard at that one! I love my silly boys!
