Last minute, this year's Thanksgiving turned into a FAMILY REUNION. My sister Julie called and said she was coming out for Thanksgiving with her family which lead to my other family members wanting to come as well. Being one of the youngest of nine children I have always admired my older siblings. They are smart, funny, successful, and most of them are great examples! ha ha :)
When all of us girls get together we can talk, shop, cook, etc all day long. The boys can do the same, but also love to watch football. The BYU/UofU game was of course on that weekend!
My sister n law Jen talked me into getting up before dawn to go Black Friday shopping with her. Don't get me wrong I love to shop, but I HATE going out the day after Thanksgiving. It just doesn't seem worth it to me with all the lines and people. But, we had so much fun and we have some good stories to remember of people out shopping for the deals!
Here is a picture of most of us! We are missing Doug and his family due to work obligations. I have so many wonderful nieces and nephews and it's hard to believe that a lot of them are in highschool or graduated already!
Some of the boys. My brother Steve is standing up, my brother n law mark is giving the "thumbs up", my twin brother is in the middle of the couch, and of course my hubby is holding Tori who is freaking out in this picture!
The cousins having tons of fun!
My sister Julie and my MOM!
The girls! My sister Julie, Karen, my Mom, me, and my sister Janine. My sister Karen might kill me for posting this since she isn't dressed up or wearing make up!
