What a great Thanksgiving we had this year.
The week flew by fast as we spent time with our families in Utah.
Thanksgiving week made us even more thankful for...
(in no particular order)
Rainier Boone who will now proudly wear this hat for a good 10 or 15 minutes and give a good hearty laugh about it.There's nothing quite like truck stops in Panguitch,UT to supply you with a beauty like that.
My Dad, for playing with my kids all week long. Taking them to the park, painting with them and even organizing a scavenger hunt for them.
Nancy, for taking such good care of us, making us great meals and keeping her pantry stocked for all of our needs. Not to mention she is one dedicated shopper like me.
The fun guy in the middle, and Rainier's cute cousin who is only a month younger.
Being able to see Thomas' parents for a day.They flew in to spend Thanksgiving with Thomas' younger sister who lives in Salt Lake.
Grandpa Rentz and his willingness to give tractor ride after tractor ride, especially when Rainier would crawl up to him, put his arms out and say "Vroom, Vroom."
My old college roommate Emily, for meeting us at a Chick-Fil-A so we could catch up and I could see her super cute boys, who waited so patiently while we talked to go and get a Transformer. I'm so excited she is having her first little girl in a few months, she is going to be such a fun "girly" mom too.
The opportunity to go see the Teels, some old friends who moved out of our ward. Nothing like 7 girls reuniting once again.
For all of the good family times we had....
and all of the extra love we developed.
For our Colorado Cousins taking time out of their Thanksgiving trip to California to make a pit stop and go bowling with us and our other Utah cousins.
For little boys and their deep obsession with any kind of ball.
For sharing.
For the way all the cousins get along so well.
Ditto....
And last, but certainly NOT least, this Thanksgiving week made me more thankful for:my sweet, fun sister, and her crazy willingness to watch 8 kids for 24 hrs even when my baby had an ear infection. She's the best.

Wow that looks like tons of planning that totally paid off. What a great trip. I lost count of all of the people you were able to visit.
You sure have LOADS to be thankful for!! Looks like you crammed a ton of visiting in there!
Just to be clear, Owen and I are not just a month apart in age.
what a fun trip! i'm glad you got to see me too. :)
that tractor ride looks pretty sweet! and I'm jealous you got to see the Teels; Bobbi and the girls were all sick by the time our date with them rolled around. glad you had a fun trip!
