    The Friday after Christmas: We met Pete and Amanda Family and went to Beck’s Tree Farm!

    We searched and wondered if we’d find anything and finally made our pick:

    We came home and started setting up Christmas:

    Packer made this cool tree out of his old craft box stuff:

    And then the kids watched like 5 or 6 Christmas movies! and we slept out by the tree. One of the best nights of the year! 🙂 TRADITIONS 🙂

    Thanksgiving week is so much fun. We love this weekend. Wednesday starts the fun, Thursday we eat and hang with family, then we still have the whole weekend ahead of us! Black Friday and more family and left over pie for breakfast and football and basketball are both going strong!

    Wednesday: hanging out with friends, pie making, basketball practice and Ben took the boys to the movies:

    Thanksgiving Day

    We spent the day at Mom and Dads with all of the UT Nettys! Tiago carried the stuffed animal turkey around all day and loved the food.

    assigned seats:

    The food was delicious and we had fun just hanging out all day. We did a puzzle and watched football and the kids played. Grandma and Grandpa and Uncle Bill and the Wrights were also there. Grandma got lots of kisses from the Mustache men! Did I mention that we ate a lot of pie?

    I am so Thankful for my family and for the Gospel plan and for all of the little comforts that we take for granted most days.
