We had thanksgiving at the Wootton's house this year. We love going out their. The kids love being at Grama Kathy's and it is so relaxing and peaceful feeling no matter how hectic it is around you. I think that is just what comes with being a "Grama's house". There was about 30 or so people there and we had a great time. I even snuck in a nap! hehe I didn't hardly ever see the bigger kids because they were outside most of the time and Kingston just wandered around watching everything.
Kingston was as happy as could be to eat and watch other people walk around the kitchen. He kept sticking his finger in this roll and waving it around. He is such a good boy.
My parents stayed at our house from Thursday to Sunday. The kids loved having them here. We went out and did a few things together as a family. Nothing too much though. We did not go shopping early the day after thanksgiving and it was kind of nice. We went out about 11am but went to second hand stores. Goodwill had everything 50% off!! We found a few cute things there. Isabel had fun shopping with us. None of the other kids wanted to come. After Shy got off work we had all the kids open birthday presents from my parents. She thought this would be a better way to not forget anyone all year long. On Saturday afternoon we had a little Christmas. All of us opened presents from Dad/Mom and Jennifer/Alex. Everyone had so much fun with all of their new treasures. Sunday we all had to get up extra early to be a Danny and Shy's ward by 8:15am. Danny blessed baby Kairi and did an excellent job. She looked so cute in her white gown. All of the out of towners left around noon. Now it is time to start getting back into routine just in time to have Christmas break! haha Routines are hard to keep! I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I know we did!

Kingston was so good all day long--just wandering around the house with his bink! It was fun to have your family do Thanksgiving with us this year! How did Marcus like the book/show?
He really liked both. There was some of the acting that he didn't like just like all of us, but over all me liked it and can't wait until the next movie! It was nice to watch it again without all the screaming teenagers LOL! There was one obnoxious lady sitting a couple of seats down from us that laughed at all the wrongs time and was so loud!!
that was so much fun watching all the kids play, and just enjoying all the family and friends.
We really enjoyed having the family for Thanksgiving. Lot's of work but Oh so rewarding for everyone. Thanks for all the goodies you guys brought. It was so good.
