My parents, Grandpa & Grandma Jennings, picked us up from the Las Vegas aiport...wish you could have seen my kids faces!!!
Grandpa and Grandma Kroff was our first stop... we kids weren't excited at all! he he he
Yes, Alli is a climber and yes, Sarah is a colorer--both were accomplished many a times this vacation!
We hopped from house to house visiting each great-grandma, each sister, each brother, each cousin, each grandpa, each grandma and more....
This is my Grandma Gurr. She's special to me! Sarah couldn't wait to see her and question her about things that are hard for most other people to discuss. Love that about her!!!
Spencer was eating up all the boy cousins!!!! He was in tears when we brought him home because he wished he lived closer to Matt, Nathan, Tyler, Tanner, Jacob, McCoy, Westin, Hayden, Bridger, baby Chris, Mason, Jason ....
We had quite a few drives back and forth from St. George to Vegas just so we could spend as much time as possible with this hunk of a man!!!
Gotta thank my Mom, Dad, and Justin's Dad for the miles!!!!!
We were lovin' that our kids got to get a little dirty! Man we miss the mountians and red dirt!!!!
Jocelyn, Lauren and Jens met us up on the Red Hill and ate Cafe Rio with us one day!
Actually Thanksgiving Day was at Grandpa and Grandma's House in Pine Valley.
Sarah was lovin' Grandma's dress-ups!
The Turkey Shoot was pretty cold this year!!! Here's Uncle Gavin and Tanner.
You can't see 'em but Spence was hiking with the boys up on this hill in the snow.
Grandpa helping Spence with his target--he did awesome!!!
Aunt Tami and Max. My kids love hangin' around all the dogs when we come. We were so sad when Harry got ran over, but we welcome new little puppy Potter!
The grand kids made a thankful tree. Spencer's: Outer Space, Jesus, and Daddy!!!! Sarah's: food!!!!
Tyler, Matt, Spence, and Nathan.
I loved hearing all my nieces and nephews play the piano--their awesome! Also, Jocelyn took me to the Jon Schmidt Concert in St. George while we there. Loved it!!! He's a funny guy!!!
Heather and new baby Christopher that we met for the first time.
Jocelyn and baby Jen's that we saw for the second time.
Jacie that we met for the first time.
Becca, Heather, Chris, Natalie, and Tami.
Goin' around sayin' what we're thankful for. This year I'm thankful for soooo many things, but I'm really lovin' airplanes!!! Love that Justin's back flyin' and love that I can fly home again.
Jacob and Spence stayed up late Thanksgiving night making their "mini van". Very creative!!!
We went out to see the "Dinosaur Tracks" and "Fort Pearce" with Ben/Chelsi/Gracie and Danny/Staci.
Soooo Beautiful!!!!
....the next morning my parents were so kind to wake up at 3:00am with us and drive us to Vegas so we could fly home! WHAT A VACATION!!!!
I loved watching Tanner and Tyler play basketball, Emily play in her soccer tournament, and Becca and Annie in their gymnastic competition. I loved visiting with Paul, Amy, Gib, Ruby, Charlie, Eli, and Ty for a minute. I loved eating meals with the Kroff's, hangin' out with my mom, tending Heather's Kids, making Shelf Reliance at Tami's (a family that cooks together stays together)! I loved seeing my Dad's new buildings, eating at Steve and Camille's, our visit in the "bedroom" with Gavin and Jocelyn... it was hard to come home and get in the groove again!

I love the family photo overlooking St. George with the temple in the background! Looks like a perfect break with your family!
I thought you were here but I knew you'd be busy with family. Hopefully you can come home more often and then I "get dibs" to see you next time! I miss you and would love to have a girls night and chat! However, it looks like you had a jam-packed Thanksgiving week! Fun! I am glad you got to come home and see everyone!
I love the update. It is so fun to see your family!
