Thanksgiving weekend..

 We had a fabulous Thanksgiving dinner at our friend's the Burton's...who is our family away from family.  They are one of those families who is amazing at everything and inspire you to do better.  We have been blessed to know them.  I don't know how we would survive here without them.  
Anyway....it was a great day of eating and being with family.  I even managed to get up early and run 4 miles!  After dinner, we all did our talents.  Sadie and I sang a little pumpkin song (on the fly...we forgot to bring a skit).  Ally Burton sang and played her guitar.  She is amazing.  She just returned home from her mission in August and is now at BYU so it was fun to have her home for Thanksgiving. 

 Then we worked off some calories with "Just Dance" Wii.  We love it!  Brody gets really into it...it's hilarious.  And if you know Noah...you know he loves things like that.
We finished off the night with the Saunders for dessert.  Amber made about 5 pies and I ate a slice of everyone of them...plus my pumpkin bars that I brought.  It was overkill.  
I have so much to be thankful for.  
Happy Thanksgiving!
