Thanksgiving 2010

We spent Thanksgiving in Arizona this year. My sister, Marilyn, and her husband, Rob, have epic Thanksgivings, and we have never experienced one. So this is the year that we decided to take the trek through snow and sleet to the Arizona border and witness that amazing sudden change of climate. We were also excited to visit with some more of my favorite people, John's sister, Lori, and her husband, Matt, who moved away from us to Arizona recently. We had a wonderful time visiting with both families, but we must have had a TON of fun at Lori and Matt's house because I didn't take a single picture of our time with them. I don't know how I managed that! Luckily, Lori blogged about their Thanksgiving and we made it into a few of her pictures.

We visited the lights at the Mesa Temple,

And enjoyed some down time with our family. We were able to see so many of them, Marilyn's family, Mikes family and Matt and Lori's family.

Lucy loved the BIG "puppies"

And we had an delicious Thanksgiving meal, complete with turkeys from the "Turkey Pit." Rob roasts about about 20 turkeys at a time in his 6 foot deep pit for neighbors and friends the day before Thanksgiving. They are very tender! Thanks to our families for putting us up for a few days, we love you!
