Family PRE-Thanksgiving Dinner

Well this weekend our family in Rexburg decided to have a Pre-Thanksgiving Dinner! Todd and Martha don't get to go home for thanksgiving sooooo a Pre dinner was in order. Monkey and I waiting before the dinner!!! we were straving and so excited!
I was in charge of the turkey! And that thing almost gave me a heart attack!! hahah being pregnant and cleaning it out... not a good combo! I had never cooked a turkey in my life... I was so nervous... but it wasn't as hard as I thought!

My mom's famous pumpkin pies... They didn't turn out like my mom's but they turned out pretty good!
I was so proud that I didn't burn any of the desserts!!!

Jeremy and Meredith came over early cause I made Jeremy crave the turkey!!!! hahahah he did an amazing job! Thanks Jershon!!
Mere and Belle!!!

The food was arriving!!!

oh and it was soooooo good!!!! Thank you everyone for bringing what you did!!! so yummy!

who all came: Meredith, Jeremy, Todd, Martha, Maura, and us! Jill and Emma couldn't make it!! we missed you guys! It is so fun having a lot of family here in the Burg!

WHAT A COUPLE!!! hahahaha Martha and Maura had the same socks!!! hahah love it!

So I thought it would be funny to dare monkey to go do a snow angel and at first he wouldn't do it... but then he told me if I did something I didn't like he would do it...


I think I had a harder time doing my thing I didn't like then he did!!! My favorite part of the night was this little video...

Meredith and Jeremy got Belle to take her first steps!!! It was so awesome to see!!! She is going to be walking in no time!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING THIS WEEK TO EVERYONE!!!
