Turkey Day Update

I promised I would tell about Thanksgiving...better late than never. We had an enjoyable day. I spent the morning packing the car so that I could leave after dinner and drive to Wade's house outside of Burley, ID. We spent Thanksgiving with Van and Susan's family. It was pretty small because most of the family spent Thanksgiving day with their other side of the families. Rosie and EJ made it up from Utah and Teniele were there. Our family was pretty small with just myself, Logan, and Becky and Mohammed to represent the children. Of course, my father and uncle's favorite spot is in front of the farm futures computer (see photo). It is funny to always see them discussing farming when they have time off. If they are not farming, they are talking about it. It runs deep in them. A fun item was decorating turkey, sugar cookies in the shape of a turkey. It was a hit with the kids. Rosie, I am glad your kids were there or else it might not have been as fun! I was amazed at your kids' creativity. Fun times.

Oh, Becky had introduced Howie to pomegranates. He thinks they are special treats. The cutiest thing is that he calls them pop-a-granates.

We are thankful for blessings of health, happiness and family. Hope your Turkey day was filled with lots of good food and family too.
