thanksgiving trip

We spent the entire Thanksgiving week

with my in-laws

in Utah.

We had a wonderful

fun, relaxing trip.

I love my in-laws.

They are definitely near the top of my thankful list.

While we were there:

We feasted.

(But I was too busy eating to take photos.)

We sang.

We danced.

We wore our pretty clothes

and posed for pictures.

We libraried and read books.

We played.

We golfed.

(Benjamin fit in three games

and I went to the driving range twice

because I'm not good enough to really golf yet.)

We colored.

We were speechless

when my father-in-law who generally hates cats

announced his decision to get one

for my mother-in-law.

We recovered our power of speech

and got to help him choose the new kitty.

We visited the train yard

where my father-in-law works.

We gifted.

We shopped a little.

(But not on Black Friday

because we're not insane.)

We visited

The Living Planet Aquarium

where we had a ton of educational fun.

We visited

with long-lost friends.

We dated.

Yes,

it was a lovely trip indeed.

But I am oh, so glad to be back home.
