Thanksgiving

We had a nice Thanksgiving with my parents this year. Trevor and Sandra were able to join us. Sierra and Bryce were absent because they live all the way in Texas (boo) A few years ago we started the tradition of having a bon fire outside on Thanksgiving (Ashtons idea)

Then we enjoyed the Thanksgiving feast at our adopted grandparents, Grandma and Grandpa Wilson. They are some of the nicest, most positive people I have ever met and it is always refreshing to be around them. Tera loves Grandma Wilson and playing with the "marsh mellow fluff" on Grandmas arms.

Since Matt had FOUR WHOLE DAYS OFF (yay!) we were able to get in some good family time together for the first time in five months. (Not really- but our together time is extremely limited) They wanted to try out roller skating so we took them and it was crazy! Let's just say niether of them are natural skaters. Ashton gave up after about a half hour and Tera was quite the determined little thing and I think she would have gotten the hang of it if she hadn't fallen hard and hurt her wrist. It hurt her for several days. I have decided skating once a year is plenty!



We have a lot we are thankful for- our family, beautiful children, good health, wonderful friends, always having food to eat, clothes to wear, shelter over our heads, living in a free country, being safe, an eternal marriage, education, having the gospel, truth and purpose, a beautiful world... and most importantly our Heavenly Father and Savior Jesus Christ and their love for us. Happy Thanksgiving!!
