Turkey Day 2017

Our littlest turkey. 
Thanksgiving this year was at Mom's. It was a little sad because the last time we had Thanksgiving at Mom's, Ashlee was still here and we were still super hopeful about her prognosis. How fast things change and how quickly time moves-she will be gone 2 years in March. This year we were exceptionally grateful for family. Every year I am grateful for Mark and that he is back. I am thankful to live so close to my siblings. Thankful for grandparents. Thankful for Utah. Thankful for my kids. Thankful for technology. Thankful for food. Thankful for Target. Thankful for my Savior who knows me and loves me unconditionally. Thankful for our new house. Thankful for jobs.

We only had ONE thanksgiving this year- G & Chris were going to St George and Mary Ann was spending the holiday with Shar. It was nice to veg out and let the kids play without rushing around. Jade talked me into going to do some Black Friday shopping- we scored $5 at Carters and that meant free $5 jammies. That was about all the "store" shopping I did- I LOVE online shopping and should include that I am forever thankful for Amazon.

I tried my hand at making my own mini-thanksgiving for my family (mainly so we had leftovers) and it turned out pretty awesome. I brined my turkey and (not to toot my own horn) but I am sure it was the best turkey of the day. 



Kingston was thankful that his tooth finally came out.
