So Thankful!

We had a fabulous Thanksgiving! I am so blessed to have such a great family and friends to share this special day with.We started the day at 11:00 with a turkey "dinner" at Gustav's. Our kids had fun and loved the food.We shared the day with Brent and Amy's family,

Clint and Kerry's family (Amy's sister),

and our good friend Aaron joined us too. All the kids were thrilled because he is so much fun to be around!And of course my sweet parents were there to head up the whole party!

Bethany refused to be in the picture with Aaron and the boys but she just had to sit by him because she really does love him!

After dinner we went to a movie and then to the church to play Lay Family Dodge Ball. With that many boys in the house we needed a little energy release before we went back to the house to enjoy more food, football watching and Wii playing!I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful husband, six great kids, and a fun family that lives close. We have been through a lot this past year with Andy's brain surgery and then him getting laid off but I'm feeling very grateful for my faith, for my family who is very willing to help out in our time of need, for Andy finally finding a job, and for the blessings we receive each day from our Heavenly Father!

Happy Thanksgiving!!
