Thanksgiving

We were so excited to have our family friend, Jodi, come and visit us. We found her a ride to Missoula. While she was with us we started getting reading for Christmas. She was on a mission last year over Christmas so she was very excited to help us get in the Christmas spirit and start decorating. I don't normally start it before Thanksgiving, but we went for it and had a great time. We tried making some cinnamon ornaments for the tree. They worked out pretty well. They smell wonderful!

Gage was very anxiously engaged in this project!

Then it was off to my parents home in Idaho. The trampoline is definitely the highlight for the grandkids. They spend so much time on it even though it was chilly outside. They even roped Jared into bouncing them.

He are my cute nieces and nephews and Gage enjoying hot chocolate, chili and cinnamon rolls up on the mountain. We eat and then it's off to find the perfect Christmas tree.

Here is Jodi cutting down one of the Christmas trees. Gage and Jared are assisting of course!

Here is Gage helping Grandma find her tree. He was really enjoying all the snow.

Here comes Jared and Emily carrying Grandmas tree
The snow was great packing snow. So it was perfect for building a snowman. Here are the fruits of our labors.













Gage was able to visit two of his Great Grandma's and sing for them. He soaked up their love and adoration. The picture with his other great Grandma didn't turn out very good, so we only have the one below with Great Grandma Jenks.
I didn't get any pictures of our Thanksgiving feast, but believe me, we ate well! Yum! Thanks Mom!
