THANKSGIVING TREK


This Thanksgiving finds us missing Karamea and Isaac.  Real life situations make it difficult for Karamea to travel.  (Paying the rent must come first)  And Isaac, is safely enjoying Thanksgiving at the MTC in Provo.  So here we are, the 6 of us and Leo.  We broke the rules and took him with us on this trek.

The Timbercreek Overlook at the top of Kolob Canyon.  It was beautiful, not a cloud in the sky.  We enjoyed every moment of this day.

I started food preparations yesterday and then was up at 6 to put the turkey in the oven.  The menu - hot turkey sandwiches, fresh fruit, potato salad, humus and crackers, green salad and for dessert pumpkin cheesecake and Chocolate Chip cookies.  We ate took a break, ate played "wave tag", ate some more, wrote Isaac a letter...then the sun was starting to set so we packed up and headed home.

Dixie Invitational Soccer Tournament - it's become a tradition.  We watch soccer the boys play soccer on Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving Day.  Five games in 2 days.  Asa's team didn't do so well.  Hamilton's took the silver.  Congrats babe.  It was fun to watch!
