Happy Turkey Day

We had a fabulous and fun-filled thanksgiving weekend. When Matthew finished school on Wednesday we headed out to Brentwood. The big day provided quite a feast and filled us to the brim. Dallin won the big-dog contest falling asleep seconds after scarfing down some mashed potatoes and gravy. Evan nibbled and picked because he knew there were many desserts awaiting. It was fun to spend it with so many. We spend our days playing game after game of pool, smash brothers, spades, scrabble, mafia and Texas Hold em'. Evan was running wild the whole time having so much fun with his cousin Austin and his aunts, uncles and grandparents. Matthew tried to study some since he taking the boards next week, but he was in front of the TV the whole time watching the football games so who knows how effective it was. We didn't realize how much hard work it takes to have fun until we all passed out after church today. Evan, Dallin and I put up Christmas on Wednesday so that when we got home from Thanksgiving it would already be Christmas. Evan sure is excited about it this year. I'm sure hoping we see some snow when we go to Idaho next week. Can't wait!
