Thankful....

....to be able to spend Thanksgiving in Utah with our family!! Shane & I made a last minute decision to take the kids to Utah to see G&G Roberts and all their aunts, uncles and cousins.  It was a great trip and I enjoyed every minute of it. 

 I love seeing my nieces and nephews grow up and watch their personalities come into bloom.  This little girl is a firecracker, to say the least!!  She is a miniature of her sister but with so much more attitude-I love it.  Spending time with her was one of the highlights of our trip.

 Emma is playing with a jump rope that her Aunt Bree made out of rubber bands.  So creative and fun.  And do you see those mountains back there?  I have to say that I really do miss seeing those mountains every day.

 My honey gets the turkey ready for this BIG family dinner-actually, it was quite small compared to our usual family dinners, only 11 adults and 13 kids!

I am so thankful for this wonderful man and for the life that we have created together with our children.  I am blessed beyond measure to be part of a huge family and have a mother & father-in-law who have treated me as their own daughter since the day I married their son.  The Roberts' family welcomed me with open arms 17 years ago and for that I am forever grateful.  I hope that we can all continue to count our blessings every day and remember just how lucky we all are!!
