Our Thanksgiving Trip!

We had a wonderfully packed weekend in Southern Ca. From beginning to end, it was non-stop going and doing. John and I drove from one event to the next and were a bit frazzled by the end...but all in all it was an incredible trip, spent with the people we love so much. First on the agenda was Thanksgiving at the Proctors. They rented a bounce house which everyone thought was the BEST idea ever! Brandon really enjoyed himself! 


Here is Brighton with her Nana on John's side. 

On Friday we headed to the beach to have Thanksgiving with my mom and Papa John. Here is Brighton feeling sand between her toes for the first time. She liked it! :) 



Here are the 3 Johns in our family and Parker.

Brandon got in some good cousin time. 

So gross but I love it. ;) 

This really is not a very good pic but it's the best I could do. Julie got completely cut out. Sorry J! I should also have taken a picture of the BEAUTIFUL table by itself! My mom made it look amazing!

I love this guy.

My four siblings and I. It was so great to be all together.

Brandon got to spend some time with his dad Jeff. So fun for him!

Saturday was very special. London and John's sister Julee got baptized.


Becca made the cutest chocolate scriptures for everyone to take home!



Sunday was Brighton's special day. She was blessed by her daddy and she cried through the entire thing! Ah! We love you anyway baby.

Poor Brighton, you have a crazy family!

So tired from all that crying. Ha!

After the blessing and more visiting with John's family, we headed out to my dad's new place. Everyone had such a great time. Yummy food, basketball, swings, an awesome giant tree to climb in, playing in the creek, roasting marshmallows by the fire and lots of family time. 

My dad and Mary with little stinker.



These boys had a great adventure out there in the wilderness! I am so thankful that Brandon has Parker to look up to. What a huge blessing.

What a great trip. We are so excited to go back down in just three weeks! Yahoo!
