Thanksgiving Weekend

We spent Thanksgiving in Flowell with Landon's family. The whole family was able to come except for his sister Shawna. We ate dinner ate his Grandma Robison's house where another Aunt and her family joined us as well. The dinner, and especially the pie, was delicious.
That night Landon, Tanner, and I along with my mom and sister Mandy went Black Friday shopping. We had lots of fun and stayed up all night until we got home the next morning and went back to bed for awhile.
The kids had so much fun with their cousins. They would get up early and stay up late every day. Except for Tanner who would actually sleep in, the younger kids just couldn't fathom what would keep him in bed so long each day and they would anxiously be awaiting for him to wake up. 
One day Landon's Dad broke out his Mom and Grandma's old costume jewelry and let all the kids and grandkids go through it and pick out some treasures. Chloe had the time of her life and has been wearing her new earrings and necklace to school all week-LOL
 

 Of course we went on our annual Christmas tree hunt. Here are the girlies...
 and the boys...
 the whole gang...
 Landon and Chloe finally found the perfect tree!
 After the tree hunt we all went out to lunch-that was a real treat with the whole crew but it was fun. Then we came home and the kids played Bingo and made sugar cookies. Later that night a few of us went to Delta to see the last Twilight Movie. We had a nice time. 
The only bad thing about the weekend is that the kids and I all came home with colds, I actually had to be put on an antibiotic-no fun. Chloe was so sad to leave her Grandma and cousins that Landon actually had to carry her to the car kicking and screaming and then she cried all the way to Cove Fort which is about 30 miles away :(
