Thanksgiving at Entrada

Thanks to Johns mom and dad we were able to stay in some sweet condos for Thanksgiving. We had such a great time. so fun but yet so relaxing too!

They got 3 condos for us. Robin, rob, and Ryan were in one. Mike and Nan were in another and jim and us were in the other. Ours got nicknamed the "party house" It was the biggest- and could hold us all for the most part!

Here is one of the 4 tables


there's John boy waving from the other side of the room. This is a picture of us trying to get everything set up for the big Thanksgiving Feast


Here we all are.....This is all 35 People- except Rob was in the shower and Brennen ditched us. John's sister Sandee who lives in Indiana was not able to make it this year and John's brother Dusty and his family went back to their home in Hurricane and went to church. but seriously....trying to get this many people together for a family picture is near impossible! So you get what you get!!!


Here is John with his brothers- Mike, Ryan and Jim having some good time on the green.

John does have some good lookin' brothers but look at the beautiful scenery. I have not been to St. George for 10 years. We've been to Panguitch several times and they do look very similar I guess. It's just so different. Living so close to these mountains I did feel a little lost without them.
This here is a little paved side walk that went between two of the condos. It was so great! Everyone was ripsticking, scootering, and running up and down it. We couldn't have planned it any better.
Here's Tyler, Emily, McKay and I in the room where we stayed. It was huge! let's just say the fam was very nice to let us have it. They wanted us to have it so that McKay would be stationed at the PaRtY hOuSe that way we wouldn't have to move him much. It made it very nice! Thanks again to all the family- if your reading this. Our closet was so big that it not only held all our clothes and stuff but it became Tyler's bedroom. It was GREAT! He slept so good.

The TWILIGHT Goers!!
minus John. Yes he was there....He was just our photographer at the moment. We loved it! Because I had heard so much about it- seriously it had been out for what- a week or so- I was patient enough to wait to see it with my SIL's. and yes it was worth the wait. We had a blast. the movie before ours was sold out and the movie after ours was sold out...so we were very lucky to get in when we did. We were all a little gitty- so that made our photo shoot that much more fun!
this here is the kids using their imagination and playing some game they made up

HeRe We ArE eNjOyInG oUr FoOd!!!

Ohhh Man that was good!!! I'm ready for that again!


SoMe CoUsIn FuN!!!

It was such a fun Thanksgiving. Thanks again Ken and Judi for giving us this fun trip. I'm sure having 10 Children wasn't the easiest and I know you both have sacrificed so much through it all. Now there are just so many people to love....and yes we do love them all!!!
