Thanksgiving 2014 had a lot of awesomeness and some not so awesomeness.  The week leading up to it, I was slammed with homework and I got a cold that pretty much wiped out my voice.  Master D very kindly mimicked me in a Christian Bale batman voice that was pretty right on.  Needless to say, I was not feeling my best and I also had an essay exam over the weekend.  That was the not so awesomeness.  We were lucky enough to have Aub, Roma and Michelle come from out of town and J & C and boys too.  B and Jeff took the kids snowboarding and came home to a warm yummy dinner.  The theme of gratefulness with the kids centered on Chick-fil-a opening in Draper.  Next year I think we’ll start with the adults!  I am so grateful that I can spend time with the people I love most, eating delicious food even when and especially when I wasn’t feeling so well.  Here’s some not so perfect photos all snapped on not so perfect phones by not so perfect photogs:

ready to ride!

Michelle and Christina were bonding over veggies (sooo good)

B expertly carves with Ari really hungry

The table is beautifully set and Aub is beautiful, but not impressed with me taking a photo.

Lelu and Ari are happy to be here!

A lot of bananagrams were played. We love bananagrams

Breakfast downtown before Aub and Michelle head to the airport. A lovely end to a lovely holiday and now I write my essays..
