Thanksgiving

We had a fun Thanksgiving with lots of family. It doesn't get better than that! Tron & Lara came down from Idaho, we had the Manuel's, my parents, Jenner, Leonora and Eric, and us (minus Sidney).

Looks pretty comfy! Zildy is probably looking at the Black Friday or Brown Thursday sales.

Lots of yummy food.

The kids/teens table.

The singles table.

The married tables.

So the ward missionaries had a lofty idea to "Fill the Manger". We put together lots of service projects like serving the homeless, collecting blankets for a youth center, and giving bags of food to an elementary school. We did all of these acts of service and then encouraged members of our ward to do their own acts of service also. Everytime someone did an act of service they would put a straw in the manger. We first made small mangers for every family in the ward, painted them and passed them out. We also put together this big manger that was put at a corner central to the ward. It was an awesome project. We did not think we would be able to reach the goal for the elementary school but slowly and surely we did. Our ward is just amazing! 

Cee Ryle had his wisdom teeth taken out on black Friday. He doesn't care about shopping anyways!

Our thankful wall!!!

I know we are so silly. We had to send a picture to Sidney.

We also went to the Family History Center. They have a new area where you can find out all kinds of fun and interesting facts about your name, family, etc.
