Thanksgiving

For family night the week of Thanksgiving we made a gratitude tree.  It included some things like food, freedom, school, Daddy's job, friends, family, healthy babies, the scriptures, and clothes.

We kept Thanksgiving really casual this year.  Jaron asked early on if we could celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving instead.  I was blown away...until he said he wanted to go hunting at American Thanksgiving.  HAHA.  Should've known. But by the time American Thanksgiving rolled around, Jaron had already shot his deer.  We still kept it laid back and relaxed.  We still had a turkey dinner, but we pulled leftover turkey from the freezer and took it easy for the holiday.

 A few snapshots of the things we're thankful for:

Besties and matching birthday shirts.

 Bestie who coordinate.  Just kidding.  This is a terrible picture but we thought this was funny.  We had the Hiatts over for dinner and realized that great minds think alike.  Believe it or not, Meli is due only about a month after I am!  She looks GREAT!

This is our and the Hiatts kids.  We love having them over to play or for a movie night.  Isabel and Reed fight to no end. :D  We are incredibly thankful to know the Hiatts and that they also moved to Twin Falls!  They're like our residency family. :)

We are also all incredibly grateful for this awesome park that is walking distance from our house.  It has everything - a creek, bridges, bike/walking paths, playgrounds, and canyon wall rocks to climb around in.  It also has a mean looking ultimate frisbee course that we have yet to make use of.
