We flew to Texas last Tuesday to visit my family. There was a blizzard blowing into Utah, but luckily we got out before they started delaying flights. Everyone else flew/drove in Wednesday. It was so great to be home with all of my family, minus Dennis, who is spending a year in New Zealand (yes, I'm jealous)!
Izzy had a great time exploring the new cabinets, rooms, drawers, etc. Plus my Mom had bought her lots of new toys, which Izzy loved playing with.
Suzette and I cooking Thanksgiving dinner.
Of course, I have to take a break from all that cooking with Kathryn and Lindsey, Craig's fiance. This was the first time I got to see her ring, which is gorgeous. We are so happy they are engaged and can't wait for their wedding!
Craig made his famous deep fried turkey. It is so yummy! Even Mike says a deep fried turkey is the best!!
Ate way too much!!
Izzy slept through most of Thanksgiving dinner. She woke up right as we were finishing eating, luckily there was plenty of food left for her!
After we stuffed ourselves we played some tennis. Mike is serving an ace!
Then we play some football. Gotta work off all those extra calories. We had such a great time. Friday all the girls hit the mall, like always. That's for another post.
My mom gave me the best Christmas gift ever. She had someone make a doll that replicates me on my wedding day. The dress is exactly the same, flowers, and hairdo. It is awesome to have something to remind me of that special day. My mom is so sweet and thoughtful; I love her!!
