Happy Late Turkey Day!!!

I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving- I know we did! We were able to spend the day at Mom and Dad Westerberg's!!!! We were in the company of great family- including: Grandma Arda, Dan and Kel- Sara, Bryon and the girls! Wendy cooked her famous, HEAVENLY Ham (as well as a turkey) and stuffing, Sara made homemade rolls that were delish, Dan and Kel brought some amazing yams- of which Kayson LOVED- Arda brought the gravy and we brought fruit salad!!! The worst part about Thanksgiving is getting full- everything tastes so good......... We had a great time watching Kayson enjoy eating most of my mashed potatoes and yams, and he enjoyed Bryan's ice water as well!!!!

After the first few bites I decided it would be best to take his shirt off and it's a good thing too the onsie he had on has deffinately seen better days!!!! Here is Terry after dinner enjoying the best part of Thanksgiving....... Grandma Arda's famous chocolate dessert! YUM!!!!
This is Bryon and Audrey getting ready to open their ornaments from Grandma Arda. (every year at Thanksgiving Arda gives all the Grandkids and Greatgrandkids a new ornament!)I wasn't very on the ball with my camera so I didn't get pics of everyone, but We wanted to say Thanks to Wendy and Terry for a great day and Thanks to Kel for taking some fun family pics to send to Elder Westerberg- it was so fun!!! (PS Thanks Sara- yes I stoll this off your blog! :))I also wanted to give a shout out to all the guys and their vast tree picking knowledge- Bryan brought back a great tree this year and the decorating is underway... pics to come- can't wait to see everyone elses......

We are so thankful for so many things but most of all we are so blessed to have such wonderful families and each other! Our little Kayce Man has brought so much joy into our home and we are so thankful that he is healthy and growing like a weed- I love this time of year and the opportunity it brings to reflect on all the things we are blessed with and all that we have to be thankful for....... Isn't life grand?
