We started our Thanksgiving vacation in Koosharem. I drove the girls there the weekend before. We stopped halfway in Ely and stayed the night. The girls' love staying in hotels and I love that Jim is racking up the "reward points" with his work trips so I can use them and get free hotel stays.

I Love when I can take my Girls to Koosharem and let them do things I grew up doing. We loaded up the sled with wood and Brindley pulled it into the house for the fireplace.
It snowed after we got to Koosharem. Of course we had to do snow angels, throw snowballs and ride the sled.
Thanks Wyatt for taking the girls on the sled. They had so much fun! The Girls love playing with their cousins.
Jessica and Samantha...They have a Love/Hate relationship...This is the shove away after the HUG.
This is Lexie making our Thanksgiving Oreo Turkeys. We made some for everyone that was going to be at Mom and Dad's for Thanksgiving. We forgot to make one for the dog though and apparently his feelings were hurt so he helped himself to them before dinner.
We picked Jim up at the airport Wednesday night before Thanksgiving. We then went and spent the night at Grandma Perry's. It's always fun to be with Grandma. She always makes sure we are taken care of.
Thanksgiving dinner was held at Grandma Perry's church with Jim's family/extended family.
Our centerpiece was a cornacopia made out of balloons...very cool.
Brindley with Hiedi.
Fun seeing all the men preparing food.
Camping out at the start of the line.....waiting for food!
We Love you Grandma! Thanks for the Good time!
After Thanksgiving we went to Logan and spent a few days with Jim's family. Jim's mom did Gingerbread Houses with the Grandkids. They always turn out so cute.
We didn't have room to bring them back with us to Nevada so I took a picture with the girls and their house.
I have to share the yummy food Ron (Jim's brother) made us. He used to work at Taco Time, and now he just makes Taco Time food for us at home! It is sooo good. He even made CRISP TURKEY BURRITOS out of leftover turkey.
It's been almost three weeks since Thanksgiving...I can't believe Christmas is upon us. I am looking forward to the holiday parties and seeing family again. I am excited to have Christmas with Mom and Dad. I realized the other day that the girls will be sleeping in the room that I would sleep in as I anxiously waited for Chritmas morning. Lot's of memories of NOT SLEEPING on Christmas Eve and the Giddy feelings inside. Can't wait to be home again!
