This is what it looked like AFTER our Thanksgiving Feast!
We had a very nice Thanksgiving. Even though it was our "off" year, we still were not left alone on this family day. Derek and Cindy and kids came. Cindy's Parents are here,Joe and Imelda, staying with Cindy and so they were able to come down with them. Todd was here. Kyle and Tif and Cody came and then left for another Thanksgiving dinner with her family. My mom was at my sisters house this year, we missed Grandma Allen being here. They all came down on Wed. night and we played a card game until midnight. I actually stayed awake...just barely. At 9:00 a.m. Thurs. there was a "Turkey Bowl" with my ward that all the guys participated in. All the younger guys that is. Neal was putting up Christmas lights (Yeah for Neal) and Joe watched some of the Turkey bowl. All in all, it was a wonderful day. Thanks to everyone for bringing such wonderful food and to Olivia for making the cute napkin rings. We have MUCH to be thankful for and hopefully we express it regularly. We missed having the rest of our family with us, but will enjoy them at Christmas and next Thanksgiving we will have the WHOLE crew. (Hopefully that includes Shannon and her family. Let's get them closer!!!)
Happy Holidays! (I can officially listen to Christmas music now AND turn on the lights! SOOO Exciting!)

Hi friend, I did get your comments on my blog. I just had to change the setting to moderate them first because I was getting some pretty weird things coming up in the comment section.
Your Thanksgiving certainly looked homey and enjoyable. I'm looking forward to a much more relaxed one next year. Too much drama in my life now has made for a very rushed dinner with way too much worry.
If you are going to be around this weekend in Orem you may certainly drop by and unload a box or two. Moving twice has been a nightmare!!
