We had a lovely Thanksgiving dinner with Frank's parents and two of his brothers' families. I didn't take many photos, as I was busy with the turkey, and it needed a lot of help!
Besides being Thanksgiving, it was also Hannukah, so I made a challah to celebrate. Challah is traditionally eaten on the Sabbath, but it was easier than making latkes.
The next day some of my family came over for games, leftovers, and pie.
The cousins loved playing with Uncle Mark
We danced away some of the calories with the American Idol dance mat. Here, Ephraim and Melinda take a turn.
Play dough came out the next day...
We went to the Savior of the World production on Saturday--such beautiful music and message!
We met the Craig kids there, full of news about their brand new baby sister. How sweet to contemplate the importance of each new baby at Christmas time. My cousin's birth announcement said, "When God wants to accomplish something special, he sends a baby...and waits."
Snow fell the following Tuesday.
Lisa played two songs in her band concert
We're grateful for cousins, food, health, moisture, the Savior, talents, and friends!
