Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving this year was with the R's.  We call it the Taylor Thanksgiving because it's everyone from mom's side of the family.  It's always been at Marilyn's house.  When we got there, just Kaye, Allan and Janica were there.  While I was helping Marilyn, Tanner became fussy and was hungry.  So Kaye was so sweet and said she would love to feed Tanner.  What a picture to cherish of Kaye holding Tanner!  We tried to divide up the food but mom still brought a ton!  There was ham, turkey, homemade cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, cheese dips, relish trays, jello salads, stuffed mushrooms, stuffing, spinach salad, monkey bread and at least 12 pies!!!!  No one walked away hungry.  Katie and her husband Cameron came in town for Thanksgiving and it was fun to have Andrew home from his mission.

While we were cleaning up the kitchen and doing all the dishes, we had the kids and some adults go out and pick up all the apples on the ground.  Andrew was actually excited to rake leaves because he didn't have to do that in Arizona on his mission.  They were such good helpers and Marilyn was so grateful for their help.  Then they went out on the big field and played football with Andrew.  My boys loved tackling Andrew.  He's such a good sport.  Maddy was awesome to help with Lily.
