Thanksgiving and Polar Express

The day after Thanksgiving, we headed up to Flagstaff to go on the Polar Express. I am love with that little college town. It is green and gorgeous. We went to Cafe Rio for lunch and then to Williams to ride the train and stay the night. It was all Sharon's organizing and I am so glad she found a fun thing so close to us. Then, the next day, we stopped in downtown Flagstaff, and checked out some cute old shops. Fun times with fun family!

Thanksgiving- Part deux

We had one packed house for Thanksgiving! We cooked two turkeys, one ham, and had a bounty of food. It was days like these that I feel so blessed to be close to family, and have a great relationship/friendship with my in-laws.

Thanksgiving part I

Jeff's mom's family came out to visit us for Thanksgiving, and we had a house full of 20 people! It was a blast and we loved having everyone here. Aunt Sharon and Fam wanted to visit the Sonoran Desert Museum, and we tagged along. It was a perfect day to enjoy the outdoors.

Halloween 2014

The girls were Supergirl, Sleeping Beauty, and a Spider...

We weren't going for a theme. Jeff's brother just got here from a long drive cross-country. So, they joined us as a little skeleton family, and we went trick or treating in our neighborhood.
We only got a handful of kids, but a lot of people were handing out candy in our neighbrhood. I just don't think anyone wanted to trek all the way to the end of the development (we are the last ones at the end of our cul-de-sac).



The weekend before, we took the girls to a shopping plaza where MyGym was having their annual trick-or-treat event, which ended in Dinner at Dickey's BBQ... YUM! And that week, I met up with my MOPS friends and had a day at the pumpkin patch. It was a blast for the girls.
