Thanksgiving

We flew up to Buhl, Idaho to spend Thanksgiving at
my parent's house. It was quiet: just my parents and my grandma
Lil, but it was a great weekend away





Last year, there was a HUGE snow storm, but this year the
weather was beautiful, Mia was sad there wasn't any snow though :(

Grandpa drove and brought his razor, so Mia was very
excited to ride on it. She wanted my dad to go REALLY fast.



Thanksgiving Day- we put my grandma Lil on a shuttle bus from
Rexburg, Idaho so she could spend the weekend with us, Aunt
Debbie came to dinner too. We had a bee fly in right when we
were about to eat, it was funny, I wish we could have gotten it
on camera.


Day after Thanksgiving we drove to Sun Valley, Idaho to get the snow Mia
wanted.




It was fun until the wind came and then it was FREEZING!

Mia enjoyed throwing snowballs

and building a snowman


my grandma Lil and I- then we went downtown to the shops
and had lunch


We were very lucky to spend the time with Grandma Lil or
as Mia would call her, Grandma L, Mia had her trapped in the playroom
for hours, she LOVED playing with her grandma. We love her so much!
Rick and I even did some midnight Black Friday shopping in Twin which was
hard work, because we had to drive 30 minutes just to get there, but we ended
up finding what we wanted and besides a very large woman running into Rick's knee and then
saying some some explicit language, it wasn't too bad!! It was a quiet Thanksgiving without
all my sisters and cousins, but it was a relaxing one! Can't wait for Christmas :)
