Thanksgiving


For Thanksgiving this year we went down to Utah to stay with Jeremy's aunt and uncle. It was dark when we arrived, and the first thing Courtney noticed in the morning was that there was a "park" in their backyard! This is where she spent A LOT of her time on our trip!





On Thanksgiving Day, all the relatives came over, and Courtney met her new best friend, Hannah. They were glued to each other all day.




This was cute. Hannah was coming down the slide and Courtney said, "Wait wait...I'll catch you" and ran to the bottom to catch her. What a good friend : )

Courtney was afraid to climb up the ladder to go down the slide, so she'd climb up the slide and then slide down it.


Playing Ring Around the Rosy

Courtney would help Hannah up every time she fell down.

She would also help her back up on the stool.

Giving Grandma kisses.

On the way home we stopped at VF outlet mall and they had this adoption center set up at the end of the hall. Courtney was in heaven.

This is "Nana". I would have LOVED to have been able to bring her home, but I don't think Dawn would've appreciated sharing the backseat with her with 4 hours! She was quite slobbery.

We had a great Thanksgiving Holiday!! Many thanks to Patti and Von (Vaughn?) for being such generous hosts (this woman makes breakfast like IHOP!). We hope you all had a fabulous Thanksgiving and found many things to be grateful for.
