Thanksgiving/The start of Christmas

This year was my family's year for Thanksgiving.  Keith and Donna decided to spend Thanksgiving with Dani up in Idaho, but they decided that they wanted to still get together with everyone before to celebrate.  Monday we all gathered at their house for dinner. Ray had to stay in Idaho, but Dani and Addie came down. After we had dinner we did a little Christmas craft.  Donna and Dani got all of the supplies for us to make Elf Wreaths and it was so much fun! We didn't really know what we were doing at first, but with the help of Youtube we figured it out.

Thursday morning we drove out to New Harmony to meet up with Hunter, Rick, Gina, Kastle, and my parents to cut Christmas trees before we drove to St. George for Thanksgiving dinner. This is the longest running family tradition we have and it is so awesome to see my brother continuing on the tradition with his little family.

This year we had dinner at my Grandma Benson's house in St. George.  Cedar hasn't gotten too cold yet, but it was still a nice change to go somewhere a little warmer for a bit. After dinner we watched some football (my second and third game ever watched!) and then headed home. It was a long day, but full of good food and even better company.
