Thanksgiving

This year Thanksgiving was at my Mom and Dad's. Everyone was able to come. Even Even and Joyann. We had 2 fun surprises.  On Wednesday Preston called Sierra and told her that he was on the rode. He was driving all the way from Oklahoma. About 30 min later he showed out. Sierra was outside and start screaming and running down the drive way. Everyone thought something had happen. Nope it was just Preston. He has left the night before. He has let Timber know since they were close but he let Sierra think he has just left. The 2nd was McCarty brought a Boy home. Brenden Hatfield, she is like the rest of use and move fast. They went and looked at right and he talked to my dad. My dad said yes, we had a family counsel and we all approved. Sadly Greg missed the counsel because he has to work on Friday.
Here are a few pictures the family just having fun. My goal was to really talk with the family and I did. There was not a night that I went to bed before midnight.  I am so glad that I get to be with my family for eternity 
 The kids played and played together. I think that they went down the driveway about 100 times. Here a fun kids pictures. I love being a kids again through them. Darline and Nathan were the best of friends. 
 Don't get me wrong the older kids did just as much playing. We make Brenden play Helium. Of course the boys played Zarahemla. Greg had to get a volleyball going. Then there was family football game. I was not allowed to play volleyball or football. That was ok I had fun watching and taking pictures.
We did a few fun crafts. Joann brought all the stuff so each girl could put a Christmas picture together. So cute no matter how you did it. 
I was also able to finish McCarty's bag. Sierra showed me how to make the flowers it turned out so cute. I cannot wait to make another one for me. 
 Some more fun that we had. Dad let us play on the horse walker. The kids had a blast. Dad and Trujillo got really creative. Oh and yes I put Katana in the bucket. Sierra was not too happy with me, so pay back is going to suck. Watch out kids Mom will try to protect you.  Timber was the nice aunt and ran beside her the whole time. She only went around about twice. About the same number of times that mom and me went around. McCarty has to show us how she could be a money. I had to try it once upside down before Greg caught me and make me stop.
The final fun thing we got to do is Steve took us all up in the helicopter. Greg had to go back to work so he missed it. I felt so bad. I did so good in the air. I did fell the baby for the first time it did not like to fly. I went with Charlotte, Abraham, Ralayna, Breann, and Bridger. At first Ralayan was not sure if she really wanted to go they were kind of scared but ended up loving it.
Ok I lied one of the best part of the week. Dad took all the girls to Braking Dawn part one. I think it was the best Twilight so far. Mom hated it. The men were awesome and stayed home with all the kids. We took up a whole row. I cannot wait till we can have a twilight marathon will ALL the moves. Greg said that will be hell on earth.  
*Thanksgiving was so much fun. Thanks mom and dad for working so hard so we could have a wonderful time. I cannot wait till Greg and I have a little one with all the craziness.
**Things not posted: McCarty, Brenden, Breann,Brody and I went to black Friday. We were going to go to Best Buy. However, it took us about 5 min to find the end of the line. I asked "who wants to screw best buy." We all raised our hands and headed to Wal-Mart.
