Thanksgiving 2015 Memories

Thanksgiving was an icy, cold wintery mess this year! 

We spent the day with 7 kiddos! (ours plus 3 foster kiddos) It went well and we were so glad to be able to include these kiddos in our celebration! So thankful for family who don't blink an eye when we say we are bringing extra kids! We really have the best family! 

Thanksgiving Day was spent at my uncle and aunt's house in Co Springs

The day after Thanksgiving, we spent with Mark's family. 

 Its' never too cold to jump on a trampoline! 

I made my first apple pie completely from scratch and it was AMAZING! 

Thanksgiving Recap

 We had a wonderful Thanksgiving at Mark's sisters house! 

The weather was gorgeous! And Elijah enjoyed playing football outside shirtless:) 

{Giving Thanks} to the Giver of every good gift

We are bountifully blessed this Thanksgiving (and always)! 

{So thankful for a good God, a merciful, loving Savior and our amazing family and friends
..... and the list could go on and on.....

 Beautiful day to play outside! 

 This is a typical way that games end in our household:) 

Happy Thanksgiving (x2)

 We had such a wonderful Thanksgiving week! We celebrated with Mark's family early since they were going to be out of town. The food was AMAZING as always! I absolutely LOVE the picture of Ella watching Grandpa carve Uncle Matt's beautiful 24lb bird. 

 Little Natalia stole the show:) 

 And Aunt Emy's pies were wicked awesome. 

On Thanksgiving Day, we had the Lutz family over and enjoyed yet another amazing meal! 

Decorating the table was SO much fun. 

This is the second time I have cooked a big turkey 

and its surprisingly pretty easy and tasted nice and moist. 

 I got the girls some sparkling apple cider and they thought it was pretty fancy. 

We are so blessed to have amazing family and friends to share the holidays with together.
