Giving Thanks

This year for Thanksgiving we went to Tom’s parents in Billings. Tom’s sister Crystine and her family also drove up from Utah, and Tom’s sister Jenn and her son Sam, who also live in Billings, were there also. We heard some very exciting news from Crystine when we got there. She announced the forthcoming birth of their tenth child in May! Yea! We are so excited for her and her family! We had so much fun. Maybe a little too much fun (if that is possible). We stayed up say too late talking (it is hard to do when the kids are awake). We had a wonderful, stress-free Thanksgiving meal (Truly!), and the cousins had so much fun playing together.
I actually got some pictures the day we all were getting ready to leave.
Jenny Wren and Lizzie with their cute toothless smiles. I guess Jenny is AS toothless as she once was.

Lucy and Elanor (sp?) sharing the Woody Couch. And thank you Ela for your example on the potty! Lucy has come leaps and bounds since your visit. I also have to thank Crys for her one suggestion. It worked! We have been going strong ever since I tried it.

A candid hot of a few of the cousins. It looks like Lucy is checking out Henry’s nose picking technique.

Sharing Lucy’s favorite book (at Grandma Loveland’s house)

Matthew and James, best buds. Wish Johnny and Caleb were there, too!

And. . .I had to get this picture of Nelson because he will be getting his mission call soon! Can’t wait to here where he is going!

Lots of good memories and fun together!
