Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving this year in St. George with Dustin's family.  Dustin had to work on Wednesday, so we had to drive down on Thanksgiving.  His family was in the kitchen all day so when we showed up the meal was ready.  They did such an amazing job.  I took a bunch of pictures but somehow missed the actual food.  I think I must have been really excited to eat. :)  Going to St. George always feels like a mini vacation, and as usual we had a great time.

The beautiful table
 The kid's table
 The dessert table.  Brittney and Peter's pies were delish!
 Dustin and I were nervous about the drive down to St. George.  Fortunately Grace slept almost the whole way and we only had to stop once to feed her.  Her expression here represents how happy we all were to get there.  Five hours was a long time in the car for us. 
 Ella has been really into taking pictures lately.  I usually find a lot pictures of the couch and floor, but sometimes she actually gets people.  Here is a good one of Dustin...
 ...and one of Grandpa :)
 Dustin's parents and sister both of Golden Retrievers and Ella loves both of them a little too much.  She was always asking to feed them or brush them.
 Poker is always popular :)
 Ella LOVES her cousin Hannah and always wanted her to hold her.  Hannah is tiny too and I don't know how she can carry her.  She is so cute with Ella and I love that Ella has her to look up to.
 We went to a fun Christmas craft show and Grandma bought Ella a wand, Ella has been playing with it constantly since we got home.
 Ella always insists on walking in front.  This was on our way to the clubhouse to swim. 
Rob and Jana, thanks for such a wonderful time.  We wish we could have stayed longer.
