Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving we went to Richfield to my Grandma and Grandpa's house. We had over 60 people (all offspring (or mates) of my grandparents) there for dinner. We had to eat at the church :) On the way there, Estella got carsick for the first time and threw up all over in the van. Luckily we were only about 20 minutes from Richfield, so we just pressed on and cleaned up when we got there. It was a mess!

I wish I would have taken more pictures, but I was too busy talking and catching up with cousins, aunts and uncles. Jackson broke the camera out once. This is my cousin Alex (the one in the military boots). He left for the front lines of the war a few days after Thanksgiving. Grandpa got very emotional during the prayer while asking for protection for Alex.

This is my mom with baby A.


Alexander and my cousin's baby Eden (isn't that a beautiful name?).



After Thanksgiving, we stayed in Fillmore for two days. We went to the high school gym to move our bodies a bit. Here are a few shots of the half court shot attempts.


There was a volleyball referee stand that Essie and Nicholas were using for a basketball hoop since the real hoops were too high for them.
Alexander just hung out in his seat and enjoyed watching the chaos.


These kiddos love their grandpa!


Kara is looking so adorable with her cute baby bump! I thought it was funny the way she was holding the soccer ball. I can't wait to meet her little boy!

You did better than me... Can I steal the picture of the babies? I would love to have it for our blog book...
