Thanksgiving was fabulous this year with our whole family! It was so good to all be together! Everyone even helped with dinner. My brother was in charge of the potatoes because that is his favorite thing. My dad is the turkey man. Kelsey helped my mom with about everything and Jake helped my make the pies! We make an apple raspberry pie and some pumpkin cheesecake! Everything turned out great and it was awesome to be together as a family, that is what I am the most thankful for... my family!

This is the dinner table, almost ready to eat!

One of my favorite parts of the weekend, (besides going shopping at 5 on Friday morning) was making gingerbread houses. We all had different themes for our houses and Jake and I were trying to choose between the temple and CTU!

We chose the temple... we are even standing out front with our dress and tux on! Jake designed the getaway car and steeple and the angel moroni! It was fun to see everyones creativity. My dad was so funny while he was helping my mom. They are so funny!

This is all of us and our amazing gingerbread houses! Chris and Kelsey's was American themed, very patriotic! Ours was the temple with us on our wedding day! My parents is a clubhouse from a golf course! It even has a fishing pond and the number 18 green! It was really cute.

Our tree was decorated so beautiful! We tried to take a family picture but mycamera was dying so its pretty fuzzy.

When we got back to Logan we got our house all decorated. It was really fun to finally be able to decorate my OWN house! Our place is pretty small itjust took a few things to look Christmasy!

This is our little tree! I love it and we even have a few gifts for our family already under it. My mom was so great and gave me some of the Christmas decorations that she doesn't use any more and we got a couple new things.

I'm so excited for Christmas and for Jake to be done with all of his finals! Only one more week and he'll have a break for a few weeks.
Merry Christmas!!!
