This year for Thanksgiving we packed up the kids and headed to Utah. Our first stop was Grandpa and Grandma Christensen's house. We arrived just in time for a yummy Thanksgiving feast with all the fixins. A couple hours later we headed over to Grandma Kathy's for another yummy dinner. My mom and Vance have been raising chickens and turkeys for the past year and this year for Thanksgiving we got to eat one of their turkeys. Seth was so excited about this...he had not one, not two, but three servings of that turkey!! It was delish!
The next day I woke around 3:00 a.m. to do a little BLACK FRIDAY shopping! It was a success. I got some really good deals and love love love the whole experience!
Then on Saturday we headed down to Oak City for the annual Christensen Christmas tree hunt. I of course don't cut one down for me personally, but Seth gets him one every year for his bedroom. He was so excited about it and had to keep telling me over and over how excited he was for his tree. While we were there we had yummy chili and bread bowls, cinnamon rolls and other goodies. The kids had fun sledding and roasting marshmallows. Here are some pics of the tree hunt.
