Happy Thanksgiving to all!

This Thanksgiving was so much fun.  I had to work on Thanksgiving day so all of our usual plans were changed.  For the first time in our entire marriage we spent Thanksgiving at my parents house.  It was wonderful to see my Grandpa and do the insane family dinner for Thanksgiving.  My parents were so great to push dinner back so I could be present.  It was great having Wesley and Hallie play together.  He learns so many things from his cousin it is amazing.  I am so thankful that Crystal and Danny have raised such a wonderful little girl who is willing to help her little cousin do things.  Friday morning my mother and I got up early and headed to Twin for some Insane Friday deals.  Black Friday nothing, those stores were nuts.  I did get some good deals, but people are crazy.  We went to the fireworks and lighting of the square in Rupert friday night.  Wesley loved the fireworks.  He calls them "booms".  The louder the boom the more Wesley liked them.
Saturday we left to go to the Boise area for our nephew, Daric's, ordination to the Aaronic Priesthood.  We spent Saturday afternoon and evening at Kyle's parents visiting and watching Wesley play with Parker and Kelly's children.  Wesley really liked playing until he got tired and hurt.  Then he was done and all he wanted was for Mom to hold him.  Sunday we went to church with Kyle's parents then went to Star for the ordination.  It was great to see so many people there to support Daric as he transitions into the priesthood.  Afterwards the whole bunch headed back to Jason and Angie's house for dinner.  All ten grandkids were in that house.  It was nuts.  Wesley loved spending time with all of his cousins.  Then we headed home.  Wesley spent the entire drive home asking about Duke and Caspi (our dog and mom and dad's puppy) or telling us "no way" when we asked him to try to take a nap.  He does not just say no anymore it is no way.  We are home safe and sound now and Wesley is down for the night.  He did get to see Caspi and Duke before he went to bed so he is happy.
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and will have a wonderful Christmas season.
