Thanksgiving highlights

It's hard not to feel a bit lonely on Thanksgiving when you aren't with any family. But over the years and many Thanksgivings apart from family, I've learned there are good things I can enjoy. 

Like, having Spouse home for a few days and getting him all to ourselves. 

Like, not having a set schedule.  When the food is ready, it's ready.  No stress.

Like, getting to spend one on one time with each of my kids during the long break from school.

Like, getting all the leftovers to ourselves.



See?  It's not so bad!



We had a pilgrim and a turkey as guests this year.

Some post dinner recreations:

Wish you all could have been here! It was fun to facetime with you though :) And not surprisingly, Brig had to ask me what facetiming was. Only 30 years old, but technilogically challenged like he's 70 ;)

#4 is already getting so big! Looks like she has a lot of adoring fans in the house. Feel bad I didn't get up to see you guys when you were in Utah last. Hopefully we will connect soon. I want to hold that baby soon!

Not much sweeter than a dad asleep snuggled up with his baby girl.
