After 30+ Hours in the Car


In Utah, with the Pace family,

we went sledding




built a snow man


Sam really liked sitting on top of the snow man. He was up there for a long time.

and ate a lot of snow.


We also played with lots of cousins, took family pictures, reminisced about our growing up years(thanks to Michele who made a wonderful dinner and planned the after dinner party), and had a great Thanksgiving with the whole extended family in Wanship. My grandma tried to throw Thanksgiving together months ago, but everyone kept canceling on her so she gave up, instead my cousin's wife decided to surprise Grandma and Grandpa. She invited everyone, found pictures of the family (old and new) and put together a fantastic dinner and slideshow. I think my grandparents really liked it, and Grandma didn't have to do anything, but sit back and relax. (sorry no pictures. they all turned out really bad)


This was the first time that all of my siblings have been together in five years. It was so nice that we could be together, even if it was for only a few hours.
