We had a wonderful Thanksgiving!! It was full of food, fun and family. My cousin Tara that lives here in Arizona had a baby just 4 days before Thanksgiving. So her mom (my aunt) was in town then my uncle and twin cousins (who just returned from missions last month) came to meet up with them. My cousin's husbands family all came into town as well.
We all met up at my house for the feast! And what a feast it was....we all ate and ate and ate some more. I think there were 6 different kinds of pie! I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but I love watching my husband eat. He enjoys his food so immensely and is so fun to cook for.
Cyrena was in absolute heaven as she got to eat whatever she wanted (she kept looking at me to see if it was ok), play catch with her dad and 'big' cousins and be involved in all the adult conversation.....what more could she ask for??

Natalie's first experience with olives. Nanny put a few on her fingers and she actually ate them....all except for a bit she spit out

A table set for royalty!
The girls didn't want to leave Claire alone
The boys played an intense game of RISK outside on the patio
We ended the evening with a few rambunctious rounds of Mafia.....are YOU mafia??? I know I'm not (but I did win twice!!)

You are so brave to have Thanksgiving at your house! And I haven't played Mafia since college...I love that game!
So I guess you ended up hosting? It looks like a good time!
I had to read ALL of your posts, I was pretty disappointed with the obligation that you put on me to do so but I did it anyway. AND.. your are awesome. What great memories and moments that you captured. I love the one of David and the girls at Micheals. However not to author I personally would NEVER get sick of you.
It looks like you had a wonderful thanksgiving!! I love your new family picture you have as your header--so cute!! Are you guys going to be around during the end of Dec? We'll be in AZ from the 27th-2nd of Jan. Let me know we'd love to see you!
