Thanksgiving Day

We enjoyed a nice Thanksgiving yesterday.  We began our day of feasting with a breakfast of homemade cinnamon rolls and fruit, then relaxed most of the morning.  It was lovely.

Jack joined us soon after I took the picture.
We have a rule that kids need to do certain things before they eat breakfast.
Example: put on underwear.
In the late morning, I asked Ben to take the kids to the playground, since it was a nice day and Luke needed to run around to burn up some energy because we needed him to take an early nap before we left for dinner.  I prepared our dinner assignments (rolls and cranberry sauce) and shortly after Luke woke up from his early nap, we left to go to my cousin's house.

There were 35 of us in all - Oma and Opa, aunts and uncles, cousins, cousins, and more cousins.  Folks had traveled from southern Utah, California, and Colorado to be there.  The kids loved having so many children to play with.

All those princesses!

Of course dinner and dessert were delicious and it was great to catch up with everyone.  We had a lovely time.  We got home in time to get the kids to bed at a decent hour, then Ben and I watched a movie together.  It was a great Thanksgiving.
