The weather has been gorgeous this week. The nice, sunny, warm days have been perfect for Thanksgiving etc..
We went to the park with cousins one day this week, it was a nice, relaxing day and we had lots of fun!

Happy kids playing outside.

The kids have fun playing their instruments and music with Danny. Lizzie sings, Isaac plays the drums, Emily plays the piano, and Taylor and Danny play the ukelele or piano.
Lizzie and her friends love playing dressups and destroying Lizzie's room.



Our family had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year. We spent the day at G & G Shields house with lots of friends and family members. The dinner was delicious, the company was fun and the kids had a blast with their cousins!

hi




We were lucky to have great grandma Shields spend the holiday with us. She is always lots of fun. There were a serious amount of football watching going on in the TV room. We ate afternoon and evening. It was a wonderful day and we have so many things to be grateful for!
Isaac made this cute Turkey hat for the holiday ( I forgot to take a picture of it). It doesn't fit his head, I guess they assumed 6 year olds have smaller heads than him. When he tried it on, and it didn't even come close to fitting he said
"I'm the only one in my class who has a man sized head."
I laughed so hard, because it's true, he does have a man sized head.
Thanksgiving night we let the kids have cousin sleepovers. I picked up the boys from Brett Friday afternoon, and then we went bowling and had dinner with the Shields group.

On Saturday we spent the day raking leaves for a ward service project, and then we got our Christmas tree and decorated the house for Christmas. Danny is leaving for China on Tuesday and we wanted to decorate before he goes. It was fun relaxing birthday. Danny and I went to dinner at City Creek that night, and watched a movie later. Happy Thanksgiving!
