Thanksgiving Break

Good friends, family and weather combined to make this Thanksgiving break one to remember. We crammed an awful lot into two weeks:

Dan and I finally made it to the temple. I won't say how long it's been since we last went (mostly because I can't remember) don't judge.

Dan was able to get many a project done around the house including fixing something or other on his car, in the process breaking something else that now needs to be fixed! Maybe over Christmas break?

We had an amazing Thanksgiving dinner in part to a smoked turkey provided by a local BBQ joint, talk about taking the pressure off! I must have been too busy in preparation to take any pictures, but here's our family's grateful chain.


We took our family to the wildlife world zoo just down the road from us. The weather was perfect and surprisingly so were the kids

This bird made itself at home on Dan's head and kept biting his ears!

After some coaxing and a bit of patience Rayce finally got a bird on his arm and then wasn't sure about it. Avie wasn't having any part of it!

Here's my one good picture of Avie Jo, the rest of them looked like this:

She thought most of the animals could of used a good scrubbing!

We had a wonderful break, now back to school and work and looking forward to Christmas break!
