Happy Thanksgiving

On Wednesday, Adam got off of work early and we spent the rest of the day making pies. We made an apple pie, a lemon meringue pie, and a chocolate pie. Josh had fun helping me peel and cut the apples for the apple pie.



























He also had fun eating the strings of apple peels.









Here are our beautiful pies.
This year we spent Thanksgiving Day with our friends Leslie and Dave and their family and extended family. We had a lot of fun hanging out with them and eating yummy food. It was about 80 degrees outside and Josh had fun playing out in the dirt in their back yard. After stuffing ourselves with pie and cheesecake, some of us watched football with others planned their attack for Black Friday shopping. A cold front blew in that afternoon/evening, and by the time we left, it was a chilling 48 degrees. When we got home, we were able to chat on Skype with Adam's family who were all at his Aunt Adria's house, and later we called my parents and were able to talk to them and my aunt and my brother and his family.

This morning we passed along to the next generation the great tradition of eating pie for breakfast the morning after Thanksgiving.



























They thought it was great!






We have so many blessing that we are thankful for. Mostly, I am grateful for my Savior and His gospel, for my wonderful family, and for our great friends. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
