Turkey Time

Preschool Thanksgiving Feast

Lilianna's cute Preschool teacher put on a Thanksgiving show & fest for the kids. It turned out really cute & Lilianna had a great time. Ellis & I were also able to go volunteer in her class for the day & help the kids make Turkeys. 

The Thanksgiving show "5 Fat Turkeys Are We" is Lilianna's new favorite song :)

Adventures to Idaho
The day before Thanksgiving we made our trek up to Idaho. We stayed in Salt Lake that night because we had a late start that day. We had a great time saying in the Penthouse Suite at the Marriott :) H

Eating breakfast in the cafe with our own booth & TV,

 We made it to Idaho Falls just in time for Thanksgiving dinner. The kids had a blast playing with their cousins. They even put on a little Nativity show; props, costumes & all.

Ellis refused to participate….I'm really surprised we even got him in the costume at all!

Joseph, Mary & Baby Jesus

Ellis liked to run around instead of being a good little sheep & sit! Typical 1 1/2 year old :)

The Angel

The little ones playing circus :)

Silly Ellis thinks he can fit in anything!

Busted making a mess! Actually they were sitting & playing very well together :)

The girlies :)

Friday we went to Pocatello for another Thanksgiving feast with Nana, Papa, Tia & James. Lilianna & Ellis got to help Nana decorate the Christmas tree. Ellis did more breaking then helping :)

 After dinner we got to go see Lizzy & give her a Christmas present. The kids were thrilled to see Lizzy & I think Lizzy was happy to see them as well!

Reunited :)

Opening her Christmas present from Ellis & Lilianna. She loved her new toys!

Lizzy Kisses

 This is my Bro-in-Laws sports room. It is the den-of-all-dens, a man cave every man would be jealous of! Ha! It seriously was quite the site to see & it was very James & very cool.

Saying goodbye to Nana.

Ellis loved the Kings Thrown 

Here is Tia's wall…oh so pretty!

Papa's boy :)

Ellis is a cheese ball! 

We got to see our good friends for just a moment. These two would be best friends if we lived closer to each other!

Temple Square

We made a pit stop, at Temple Square, on our way back to Vegas. I've always wanted to take my kids there, especially to see the lights, but unfortunately, we couldn't stay to see the lights. We did get to walk around & see all of the wonderful Christmas decorations. I just love Salt Lake/Temple Square & I really miss living so close.
