Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving morning we spent sleeping in and relaxing.
Something new for me this year. Usually I'm down stairs cooking by 7am on Thanksgiving morning. This year it was just Ryan's parents and us.
So this year we went to a nice buffet at the Arizona Grand Resort instead of slaving away in the kitchen all day.
Me and Ryan

Although sometimes I feel like there are so many things in my life that I would love to change, so many trials and obstacles in this life that make things seem so hard and unbearable.
However I know that there are so many more things in my life to be so deeply thankful for. I am even thankful for some of my trials, without them I wouldn't be who I am today.
I am so thankful for-
The health of my children and family, a husband who loves me and works very hard for me everyday. Family who love and support me in everything that I do. Who are always there to catch me when I fall. Sometimes knowing what I need before even I do.
I'm thankful for a home to live in, food to eat and the blessing of freedom.
I am thankful most of all for my testimony in our savior Jesus Christ. For my knowledge that he lives and love us all.

Hanging out at the resort I took a couple pictures of the kids.
Ella {the model} thought that there were many places to take some great shots of her.

Jack still had a very messy face. Oh well.
After we ate we all went and saw the movie "a Christmas Carol".
It was pretty dark and scary, I was worried that Ella would have nightmares, but a couple days later and it looks like she was ok.
After the movie we went and got some pie at Denny's.
We are so much food through the day, I'm still not hungry!

It was a great Thanksgiving.
Ella's favorite part of the day- driving with Grandma and Grandpa!
Thank you Rick and Sandy for such a great day! We were so glad that we got to spend it with you both! We love you!
