Thanksgiving

We were able to spend Thanksgiving with some of Marcus' family and the whole Smith family. My dad's whole family came up for Arizona for the holiday and it was FANTASTIC! They were here for a little over 3 days and it was not nearly enough time. It was my Grandpa's birthday the day before Thanksgiving so we threw him a little party after they got here- complete with a golf themed cake and a pineapple upside down cake (his favorite). We also made him a picture scrapbook of all the family which was a hit.

On Thanksgiving Day, Marcus, Johnny, and I went up to Centerville to spent some time with the Messer's and Brittany. We weren't there for super long but enough to eat a small Thanksgiving dinner before our big one later that night. Going to the Messer's is a bit of a Thanksgiving tradition for Marcus and his sister Brittany so it was fun to go up there for a bit.

Each boy had coloring pages and their own labeled box of crayons. Aunt Patsy is super cool!

On our way home from the Messer's to have Thanksgiving dinner with my family, we got a flat tire. My dad and grandpa came to help rescue us and all was good but it was a set back that we wish could've been avoided on the holiday. But we made it home and had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner with the whole Smith clan.I really wish we all lived closer!
