Trip to Indiana for Thanksgiving.


We stopped in Arkansas and stayed at a Holiday Inn and let the kids swim.  They enjoyed it.  Taylor and I on the other hand froze.  The water was heated but we are wimps.  
 The next day we were on our home stretch and got to see our wonderful friends, the Erkelens who now live in Bloomington, Indiana.  It was so great to see them and their adorable children.  The kids loved hanging out with each other.


 Carsyn, Macy, Preston and Callie.  Paige and Nixon wouldn't get in the picture.  We had another hour left to my parents house.  We arrived on Tuesday night.



 Thanksgiving day the men in the kitchen cutting the turkey.
 All the delicious rolls and desserts.  I made a cheesecake and Heather made the other pies.
 Baylee and Callie with their matching sweaters.  The Missionaries came over for Thanksgiving day and they played a game with all the kids.



 Dallin getting ready for the prayer.  We just love him!

 Dallin hadn't had ice cream very much and he is licking it out of the bowl.  It was so funny.
 The kids started a wrestling match with Luke and Jackson.  It was so fun to watch.  They got a little crazy and surprised no one got hurt.  Luke and Jackson were such good sports to deal with all the younger ones jumping on top of them.



 Awwwh
The video of the wrestling match!
 Thursday night Heather's kids spent the night at Mom and Dad's.  We had a hard time going to sleep.




 The  kids drinking their smoothies the next morning.




 Friday night we had to say goodbye to everyone since we were leaving the next morning.  All the adults went out to eat and the kids stayed at Heathe's house.
 Madelyn was so sad that Callie had to leave.  She started crying!  Wish we could see them more often.


 Paige on the ride home.  
 On our way we stopped and stayed one night at Bill and Mary Ann's house.  They were so lovely to us.  Mary Ann made us a yummy soup and sandwiches and we had a brunch the next morning with Taylor's cousins.
 Margie really enjoyed doing this puzzle with Callie.  It was cute watching them.
