Thanksgiving

I posted the pics in the previous post without going into detail about what we did over Thanksgiving. It might make more sense with a little more background info, so here it goes!

Nate's sister Melanie, who has lived ten minutes away from us for the past year, fell in love with a Utah boy and got married on Nov. 28th. So the day before Thanksgiving, the family and I flew out to Utah for Thanksgiving. This is the first time we've gone anywhere for that holiday in forever because we normally just stay at home. It's too short to do anything else. But we had a blast in Utah.

We stayed with Nathan's uncle Stan and aunt Lucy, whom the kids both loved immediately and talk about all the time.

Nathan and I were able to take a trip down memory lane with the boys by taking them to BYU, showing them where we used to live when we were single and married, the hospital where Camden was born, and topped off the night with In&Out.

Saturday was the wedding and the bride was Bee-U-teeful. There were some mishaps with flowers and the cake but everything was sorted out in the end.

Sunday we took the kids to Temple Square, to see their Great-great Aunt Elizabeth, and to see the hospital where Nate and his dad were born. I think it was fun for them to see the places they've always heard about or seen in pictures. They were pretty excited.

Camden and Aidan behaved amazingly well. They traveled fine, adjusted reasonably to the time change, were well-behaved on the many airplanes. It was great.

And forevermore, I will be 22 weeks pregnant in Melanie's wedding photos. nice.
