This year for Thanksgiving we were able to spend some time relaxing at the R&R Ranch! It was so nice to be able to spend time with Casey's family at his Grandparent's ranch. All those who made it to the feast this year were: Our family, Jeff (Yolanda wasn't able to make it because she was sick) Aunt Pam and Uncle Gary, Cousin Rachel and her boyfriend, and of course Grandma and Grandpa. We had a nice Thanksgiving dinner with the regular Turkey, Stuffing, Mashed Potatoes & Gravy, Greens Beans, Rolls, and Pumpkin Pie.
Isaiah is definitely getting into a lot more mischief than he was when we were there last time! I think Grandma was ready to have her peace and quiet back by the time it was time for us to go! He loved chasing the dogs (Gunner and Stubby) around the house and looking right in their faces. They are nice dogs, but I was a little nervous because he kept antagonizing them and I was afraid they were going to bite him on the face. Luckily for him he got away unharmed. The dogs were definitely getting sick of him and kept trying to hide from him :) He also enjoyed helping feed the horses (Zinger and Chile). He didn't want to go for a jeep ride or ride the RTV this time though. Not sure why. But I know he had a lot of fun because the whole drive home he kept on saying that he wanted to go back to the ranch! And he is still saying that he wants to go back to the ranch!
Anyway we all had a great Thanksgiving and are glad that we were able to spend the holidays with some family. This year we are especially grateful for our many blessings. We are so grateful for our two sweet children, good health, good doctors, a good job, insurance, that I can be a stay at home mom, friends, a good ward, and all the other countless blessings that we have! We just feel so blessed! And hope to pass on some of our gratitude by giving throughout this upcoming Christmas season!
We didn't get many pictures this time, but here are a few that I managed to get.

| I was so happy/surprised when grandpa asked to hold Brooklyn! I was even more surprised the next day when she was sitting in the recliner next to his chair and next thing I know Grandpa is holding her again! I guess he is starting to love children even more as he gets older. I don't remember him ever doing this with Isaiah. Maybe he has a soft spot for this sweet girl. She definitely has her daddy wrapped around her finger! Maybe she is working on grandpa now too! Although I really don't know how anyone could resist this sweet girl! |
