Thanksgiving (and the day after) 2017

Zac smooshing up the SLUSH - Brightyn is always interested in what Zac is doing, and he is so cute with her.

Sitting down to eat............

Loading up the plates.............

YUM YUM

Brightyn and Payson were SO SO excited to sleep over at Grandmas.  I swear they changed into their jammies right after they got in the house.  This pic was taken while we were eating pie.  They had fun talking with Kuk.

Brian was explaining the finer points of MATH to Tagg, over a piece of  Grandma D's yummy pumpkin pie.

Perusing the adds, in preparation for BLACK FRIDAY shopping !

Making turkey treats

This girl likes to munch on the candy corn :)

Puzzles !

There's a turkey treat !

Later we made sugar cookie dough
(didn't cook any though)

Grandma Ben came over, and was showing Brightyn some pics she took on her phone.  She ate at Joni's this year.

The next day (after the sleepover), the Littles also made these cute crafty turkeys from sticky foam. 

Payson wrote this note.
He was pretending to be Santa (his favorite thing), and as "Santa" he wrote this note to Thatcher.
"Thatcher Rich is being good, I will give Thatcher presents"

It was so nice, we were outside for a bit.
They wanted the Trampoline back up, but sorry.........
It's almost winter !!

Back in the house to make sugar cookies !

Fun times !
Thanks to Amanda, I have 101 different cookie cutters
Boy they had fun choosing from trucks, ducks, snowmen, people, etc.

Later in the afternoon, we went over to the Property

Sure love these kiddos

We weren't able to burn on Thanksgiving because of the burn index numbers, but the stars aligned on Friday, and we were able to start the pile on file.  Tagg and Treyson got into the "starting" action this year. 

These two were flying monkeys on the swings

Brightyn keeping warm

This is our Arizona Gang's Thanksgiving !

I guess they had a wonderful time, and a great dinner, and a houseful of guests.

Elle and Cam
We love you guys !!
