Going to see the lights...

While we were visiting family up north, one of our stops was at my cousin Jamie's. We went to see the Lights in Spanish Fork. Every year the Spanish Oaks park has a drive through light display. The kids loved it so much we went around the park three times.

Cheeeeeese!

Thanksgiving... Take Two

My dad's family were nice enough to put us up at "Hotel Mooney" for the week. It was so fun to see everyone. My sister Holly recently moved back to Utah from Washington so we got to see her and her two kids a lot. Garrison was kind of jealous that he wasn't the baby anymore! Grace and Dodge were nearly inseperable. They played so well together. Dodge tells me almost everyday that he misses his cousin Grace.

We got to do a lot of fun things while we were up there. We went to the Body Worlds exhibit that was in Salt Lake. I would have taken pictures if they would have let us. It was amazing. Dodge was so good the whole two hours it took us to walk through the exhibit. He thought it was pretty cool. We also went to A Christmas Carol at Hale Center Theater. Dodge loved the play. He even caught some of the chocolate coins that Scrooge threw into the audience at the end of the play.

Here are a few of the pictures I took. I didn't get as many as I would have liked but for the most part I was caught up with visiting with all the family I haven't seen in a while and forgot about the camera.

I actually got a picture of Garrison smiling!!

This has to be the most precious picture I have ever seen!!

Addison and her daddy. They both have the same eyes.

While we were all there for Thanksgiving, we decided to get some family pictures. All that was missing was my oldest sister Brook and her family that live back east.

Thanksgiving Take One... November 26th 2008

We went "up north" this year for Thanksgiving to see some of my family. We got together the night before Thanksgiving with my mom's family. It is the first time all the kids have been together in years. It was fun to see all the grandkids together.

Dodge's Thanksgiving Program November 25th 2008

Dodge's Preschool had a Thanksgiving Feast. After the feast the kids sang some Thanksgiving songs and recited some poems they learned. It was so cute to see them all in their pilgrim hats.

Dodge was more than happy to get up in front of everyone and perform.

Dodge and Grama (who was nice enough to volunteer to help with the feast.)

Here is one of the Thanksgiving poems they learned. I picked this video because I thought it was hilarious that Dodge was picking his nose through most of it. Kids are so funny :)
