Family Fun at Thanksgiving

We were lucky enough to have Thanksgiving with ALL of Brads family. Everyone came to Utah and we had a great time. Marshall stayed with us, and Tawni went to Georgia to see Mom and Dad. I don't have any pictures of Marshall, though, because everytime we tried he ran out of the picture. (So uncharicteristic of him)This Thanksgiving I learned quite a bit about cooking and baking. My friend Sandra helped me make 6 pies! Making pies isn't as hard as you would think. I was always really scared to try, but thanks to Sandra I overcame that fear. Thanks to Joyce for all your help. I don't think she left the kitchen the entire weekend, but we had lots of great food around. Being around family sure makes the Holidays more enjoyable! Thanks for coming guys!


My pies-

Aunt Jen reading to London
London's first time iceskating
London got so much attention that weekend. Too bad she didn't appreciate it like she should.


I missed the McMillians family picture, so this will have to do.Grandma and Grandpa and their 16 grandkids...soon to be 17:)Tawni by our Christmas tree.



Sorry about this big long space. I don't know how to get rid of it?

I am so happy that you were able to have so much family in town. How fun. When Marshall comes out for Christmas I will get pictures of him. Even if I have to have Mark tackle him to the ground. That boy needs to understand that we want to show that he is invovled with the family. No more hiding I say. London is so cute. Oh and by the way, I am sure that you feel like you have a big belly but I think you look really good. Do I need to send you a picture of me when I was pregnant with Makayla to make you feel better? Just kidding those pictures are in hiding. Wish I could come out and see you.
