Thanksgiving

Well Thanksgiving was a lot of fun this year! Unfortunately, I didn't take many pictures. We had family come in from all over and it couldn't have been any better. Todd packed the week with so many activities there was no time for anyone to say "I'm Bored". The festivities started with a big golfing trip to Conroe and then to take a look at Amber Springs, the newest Texas Old Town. I stayed home to decorate for Christmas...I'll post photos later. The next day was a trip to a paintball course. 10 and older were involved in this battle. It sounded like a great time! When I asked Taylor where she hurt, she rubbed her entire left leg and said, "right around here". Everyone was boasting about their trophies aka bruises. Paul's back was so bruised it looked like he was wearing a polka-dot shirt! I think I made a good choice by shopping that day and not enduring the pain. Then there was more golfing, movies, shooting contests, visiting and of course, eating all mixed into the remainder of the week. Our Thanksgiving dinner was WONDERFUL! There was so much food that it literally hurt! The turkeys arrived a little late (after we were finished eating, but no one seemed to mind.) The girls decided to go shopping from 10pm -4am at the outlets. Wow! We can just say that we made some great memories. We stood in line for hours, but we had a great time doing it. We were so loud and obnoxious that at one point, we left the line at Target and the crowd cheered! Funny night! The kids had a great time too. They spent the night with all the cousins and had fun playing in the dirt, video game competitions, watching BYU games and dancing! Like I said before, a great week with the family!
