"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experiences." — Gordon B. Hinckley

Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
We had a great day with family and friends.
We were able to spend the day with Ward's
brother, Sterling and his family, along with
their in-laws, and friends. It was a house full,
about 30, but that is what made it Thanksgiving.
There was plenty of eating, laughing and playing games.


(I made my first pumpkin roll!!
It was super YUMMY!! and nowhere near as
hard as I thought it would be to make)
Emily and Raychel
Lots of room to eat!!
Emily, Raychel and Jolene
So many homemade pies!!
Playing games with cousins
Since we weren't home for Thanksgiving we had our
own then next day. We make Thanksgiving dinner
just on a smaller scale. It is nice to be around our table
in our home, enjoying our food and being
thankful for the eternal bond we share.
Jolene enjoyed the chips, she made her own
"coat picnic" she had been outside helping Ward.
Yummy Turkey!!

It's always fun to be with family and friends, but nothing like having your own little gathering. We do the very same.
