Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving dinner this year we ate in Yuma at Kyle's step mom's dad's house. Did you follow that? Cool. It was sooooo delicious just like Thanksgiving is supposed to be. :)

After dinner (which was at 2:00), we headed to Mesa for a few days. We stayed at JC's house (Kyle's best friend), but because we were doing family stuff most of the weekend we didn't really see him hardly.

It was an awesome weekend. On Friday we visited with Kyle's second momma and then had lunch with Holly who is an old friend of Kyle's. They hadn't seen each other in like six years. It was great to meet her and we are totally friends now! Yay for new friends! She is really cool. :)


Friday night we went over to Kyle's aunt Charley's house in Scottsdale and stayed for hours laughing and catching up with everyone. It was so great! He has a few cousins that live in the valley too that he hasn't seen in years.Kyle's aunt Kasey and uncle Jeff who live in Canada were in town and so was his Grandma who lives in Texas. Pretty much a lot of people were there that he hadn't seen in ages. (I had met them all at the reunion last summer, but Kyle was in Jacksonville FL so he wasn't able to go).

Saturday was all family stuff. We went to Scottsdale and had breakfast with everyone at a delicious place called Dottie's. Cinnamon french toast is always a fabulous choice. If you've never tried it...DO IT!

After breakfast I went shopping with the girls and Kyle went back to his dad's house to hang with the guys. I have never been a huge shopper, but it was really fun. I loved being able to spend time with Kyle's extended family.
we went to the Bass Pro shop to get a picture with Santa but the line was too long so we just did the  free carousel ride
For the rest of the day everyone hung out at Bryan and Connie's house (Kyle's dad's house) and it was such a blast. Connie made a turkey dinner, so we pretty much had Thanksgiving twice. Hey I'm not complaining. ;) 
Kyle and his Gramma Bo (ps I have her wedding ring :) awesome right?)

Kyle's Uncle Jeff does some photography so I asked if he could take a few pictures for us. It was too dark to go outside, but I am happy with them. I just love my little family.

Thanksgiving weekend was a blast and I am so blessed to have such wonderful friends and family in my life. I honestly don't know what I would do without them. Love you all!
