Here we are at Twilight

Lilly is the most contagious little girl. She is so eager to do everything and has endless energy, it's like she doesn't dare slow down because she might miss something. She wanted to help me with the cranberry salad. Notice that she is stirring with one hand and beating with the other. She has to do it all! She asked for one mini marshmallow, "Don't tell my mom because I already brushed my teeth."

Before dinner we all went outside to take family pictures. We felt like celebrities because there were so many cameras and people saying, "look here." Ok, so there were about 5 cameras taking pictures at once and we never knew which camera we were suppose to be looking at. Everyone looked at the right camera but Wind and I.

We had everyone but Tad's family and Julie for Thanksgiving. We all traveled to Grandma Julie's in Burley, Idaho. Grandma Julie had a wonderful large room for all us to sit together for dinner. Dinner was fabulous. Blue, Dallin, Wind and Coby spent time playing video games. We watched movies "Get Smart" and "Enchanted." We played games "Apples to Apples" and a game that Sundi brought. Her boyfriend's family made it up so it doesn't have a name. We would have enjoyed it more if we didn't have a six year old, Lilly pounding her heart out on the grand piano (but we couldn't tell her to stop she was enjoying it so much), Coby and his girlfriend giggling and goggling over each other and some light to see the board. We got a good laugh out of Addison while playing Apples to Apples. The word was "exquisite" and Addison used a blank card. We asked him what he was using on his blank card and he said, "My body naked." I never laughed so hard. After dinner we all went to the movie "Twilight". Casey took some of the littlest children to "Bolt" the cartoon. Seth said, "Seriously, that has to be the worst movie I have gone to." He thinks he would have enjoyed the cartoon more. Seth, Jessica and Wind brought their guns and took Blue, Dallin, Troy and Roland shooting. Blue said that was fun. Misty cut her mother and NeCole's hair and put eye lashes on NeCole and I. We got all decked out and Misty, NeCole and I went to town to a couple of boutiques. Everyone had a great time visiting and getting reacquainted.
