This was my first year ever to make all of Thanksgiving dinner by myself. Normally, we travel back to New Mexico and visit our families that have done all the cooking. But this year we stayed in AZ and my family came and stayed at our house. It was a lot of fun and my mom helped me every step of the way. I've been kicking myself because I didn't take any pictures of the dinner! I was just so busy and by the time the food was ready all I wanted to do was eat it. Sorry, no dinner pics here, but I did take some pictures of bro-in-law Jacob's delicious pies! Apple, pumpkin and pecan.
And here is Diego enjoying said delicious pies.
Everyone working on a puzzle. This was actually the saturday after Thanksgiving.
It's always a tradition for my family to work on Christmas crafts a day or two after Thanksgiving. I made a beautiful wreath that I was extremely proud of. See how intensely my sisters are working in the background?
After crafts, the family went to the Mesa temple to see the Christmas lights. Diego was out camping so he didn't get to go. Sad. But I still had a really good time.
Oh! And Diego's 29th birthday was on Friday! Happy Birthday Diego!
