Thanksgiving and other things

My Thanksgiving was amazing!  So wonderful.  So many people I loved were in my home helping make the day so great!  They all pitched in in such incredible ways that I didn't even feel overwhelmed because of how helpful everyone was!  I wish I had taken more pictures.  This new me (where I don't take pictures very much) is driving me crazy, but oh well!  Here are a few I took with my phone:

My bro carving the turkey
 The girls waiting for the feast
 My cutie pie nephew
 Speaking of pie . . .
 Later that weekend, my sister drew Cooper these little faces which HE LOVES!  He "talks" to them and smiles and laughs.
 I also sang in a concert on Temple Square.  It was incredible!  I've been in such a crazy newborn land, that I think if I hadn't been kindly pressured into sticking with the choir, I would have dropped out.  Singing in the concert helped me feel the Christmas Spirit and made my heart happy.  I might have just missed that feeling all together this year without the music.

My sister and her kids came to hear us sing.
 My mom sings with me.  I love it!
 Then we enjoyed walking around the temple and seeing the lights!
Thanksgiving was also my NINTH ANNIVERSARY!  But Todd and I are celebrating that in a couple days, so more on that later.  :)

It really was such a wonderful day and so happy you didn't feel overwhelmed. I am so glad we came up. Glad you were able to go sing- sorry we missed that part. I have a bunch of pictures I need to put up on the family web site
