ThAnKsGiVInG in the SuNsHiNe...

Yes Yes, we went to good ol Phoenix Arizona for Turkey day this year. Our family and then my dad and step mom went to see my sister Danielle. I am so glad we decided to go. We drove...which sucks, but the kids did great. Never again will I drive though!! Jay even drove the whole time both ways. What a guy! I didn't complain. We rented a house in Mesa, which didn't work out. Their pool wasn't heated and that was a huge issue since the kids just love to swim. So that sucked. We ended up staying with Dani and Corey that night, then the next day we found another house, which was ten times better than the first with a heated pool! It was so much fun. The girls would get up every morning and swim with their dad! It was great...the pool was definatly worth it. My dad also stayed with us and that was fun!


We had Thanksgiving at the house we rented because it was huge and perfect for Thanksgiving dinner. I have to say it was a little strange cooking and not just showing up to eat. Danielle, Faith...my step mom, Dani's mother in law and myself cooked Thanksgiving dinner! It was delicious too!! The day before Dani and I made about 6 pies and that was a blast! So Turkey day was a good day!!



Danielle and I went out shopping on Black Friday. We didn't get up super early or anything, we went later but it was still crazy busy and we found some good deals too. Thanks to my step mom who watched my kids while we went. It was so great to see Dani and Kaiya! I have missed them so much. Dani is my best friend and it is so hard having her live 12 hours away! It sucks actually!! It was nice spending a whole week with her and her cute family, although I wish we could have stayed much longer! We sure enjoyed ourselves in the warm weather too, I have to say I just might wanna go to AZ every Thanksgiving...It was beautiful!


Here is a couple pictures from the trip...I wish i took more, but you know how that goes...

Karston in Jail...he wanted in that pool so bad all the time

We had fun taking these pictures of the girls the last day we were in Arizona. Don't ask me how they all ended up naked, but it sure made the pictures cute. I know my girls are a little old, but I couldn't not post these darling pictures!

Arn't they just adorable? I guess I did have quite a bit of pictures...Hope you enjoyed them!

I hope everyone had a fabulous THANKSGIVING...we sure did!

Now on to ChRiStMaS!!!
