So much to be thankful for

For Thanksgiving we drove down to St. George to spend it with Grandma and Grandpa Murdock (my mom's mom and dad), and my brother Mike and his family that live down there. My two other brothers that live here in Orem area and my aunt Pat and cousin Casey came down too. My Uncle Brian and Aunt Jodie and their kids Tate, Hannah and Gus came from Idaho. For us it was a rush trip. We went down Wednesday afternoon and got there in time to have some dinner and go to a movie. All the boys (blake, and the boys, cousins and uncles) went to "the Bee movie" while the girls (Lori, Pat, Jodi and Hannah) went to "Enchanted." The boys said that the bee movie wasn't as good as they had hoped, but the girls loved "enchanted". Thursday morning all the older boys and Hannah went golfing. There was a chill in the air more than we had anticipated for st. george, but it was still nice to go golfing. You can't ask the boys who won cause they are all still a little embarassed that they were beaten by a little girl. We took the boys legos and scooters down and they had an absolute blast riding them in grandma and grandpa's hanger that was cleared out so that we could all fit in the hanger for thanksgiving dinner. The boys love being able to hang out with their cousins and they just played and played and played. We had to head out Thursday after dinner and some visiting since Blake had to work Friday morning. I have decided their is some conspericy against us spending more than 24 hours in St. George. This was our third trip down this past year and all of our trips down have been like that. Oh well, we'll take what time we can spend with our family down there. There is so much to be thankful for. Here are a few pictures of things that i am thankful for and of our thanksgiving wirlwind gathering.
