Thanksgiving Weekend

For Thanksgiving, we went to Loa to spend it with my family.  My brother Tim and one of my sisters, Cammie and her kids were able to be there too.  I didn't get a single picture of actual Thanksgiving, but we had a great dinner.  I contributed to the meal with garlic brussels sprouts, pretzel jello salad, French silk pie, and a cheesecake (I can't remember what kind it was - haha!).  There was lots of other yummy food too. :)

Quinn had fun visiting Grandma's horses.  


 He loved Grandma's kitty, Louie, too.  I'm not sure Louie was too fond of all the attention though. :)

The day after Thanksgiving, we headed up to Boulder Mountain to find our Christmas trees!
There wasn't a ton of snow and it was nice and sunny.  Perfect tree-hunting weather. :)



After we walked around for awhile and checked out a few different trees, we found the perfect one!


 Timber!



After it was cut, Josh tossed it up on his back and carried it back up the hill to my parents' truck.  
We were laughing because he looked like the Grinch carrying off the Christmas tree. :)

It looked so funny, like a tree with legs. :)

It was such a beautiful day.  We stopped at one of the lookouts points on the way back.

We grabbed some sandwiches at Subway on the way home and stopped at Sunglow
to have a picnic and go for a little hike (yay, one more hike in for the year - in November of all months!)
