Thanksgiving in MinneSOta

It's been TWO WHOLE DAYS! I know you're chomping at the bit for me to blog :P I am finally getting around to it!!
Our trip to MinneSOta was fun...it was great having family around all day to play with and shop with :). The drive up and back wasn't my favorite part...but having a week in the middle to just relax and have fun made it worth it!
This is our crowd sitting down to eat for dinner on Thanksgiving. We are all there, minus Bryan, who had to stay in AZ and work...but we printed out his picture, and he got nice helpings of olives and orange rolls.

This was the first time that the cousins really got to play together for an extended period of time....and they were just old enough to WANT to play together, and not just sit there and drool. I do admit, some times were trying, as playtime with a 2 year old and 3 year old is bound to be...but we managed to compromise on alot of things...like this chair for instance...both Bella and Rylee wanted to sit there...so we just made them sit in it together! Too cute!

This is our traditional family picture on Mom and Dad's stairs. We have been trying to take this picture in the same place each year to mark the progress...I might have to post again later with the one from last year (and minus the red eyes!).

And the whole gang (minus Bry-man)....ahhh family! It's growing by leaps and bounds!

And last but not least...the HOT MOMS....James and Josh just happened to have the same shirt..hmm, wonder why! Their wives must have great taste! Anyways...I forgot to mention I'm a blonde now :) YAY!

Okay, first, I LOVE your shirt where you are sitting at the table. Second, Aubree looks like she's grown a lot since I saw her last. She looks all toddlerish instead of babyish. And third, love your hair.

Sarah, you have such a beautiful family!! I'm so glad you had a good time with the Kirchmanns, but I have to admit, I wish we could just ALL be together all the time, and not have to worry about sharing! Think you AND the Kirchmanns would move to Cedar City? haha!! Love you!!

Hehe...i WISH! Lisa was trying to convince them to move to Arizona the WHOLE weekend...hopefully they will budge one of these days!
