I remember many Thanksgiving dinners held at my Grandpa's church building when I was a kid. It was always so much fun. We got to play basketball in the gym, and hide and seek throughout the building. And dinner was always so yummy. We have started doing it at our church building, and the kids love it... not to mention, there is so much more room. We set up tables in the Relief Society room, and the kids just ran around the gym and the nursery. There really weren't a ton of us this year, but it was still nice having it at the church. Jared's favorite part is playing basketball, of course!
The kids had a blast just playing around until dinner.
Once it was time to eat, however, I put my camera away and never got it back out... so there are no fun pictures of the delicious food, or everyone sitting around at the table, or playing games and looking at Black Friday ads... but it was a nice, relaxing Thanksgiving. What a great time to remember the things we are thankful for. I'm so thankful for my parents and their love and support through the years (we sure missed dad this year since he was in Arizona!) I'm super thankful for my awesome hubby. He does so much for our family. I'm thankful for my sweet kids. They make me smile everyday. I'm thankful for my sisters and their friendships (and their cute families of course). I'm extremely thankful for the gospel and the knowledge I have of my Savior and all he has done for me. I am so blessed and grateful for all that I have - too much to mention. I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving too!
