Thanksgiving 2010

We had a fun Thanksgiving. We started it out at the Allen house. We were able to see Trina and Ross, along with both of their families. The kids had fun playing in the leaves and then in the snow. My parents recently returned from Israel and they brought some souvenirs. Ella loves dancing in her little skirt.

Then we were off to Utah. We had a great time once we got there but it was the getting there that gave us some trouble. After trying to fly standby and accepting that we were not going to get out before Thanksgiving we decided to go back to our original plan to drive. It was a bit rough. The roads had ice and snow for most of the way. We also had a road closer so we had to drive another 70 miles at 11:00 at night to get a motel for the night. We made it safely to Utah and had a great time with the Kemps. We had a yummy Thanksgiving dinner at Dave's sisters house. Went to temple square to see the lights. We did a little shopping but spent a lot of our time with family. Dave said several times that this was one of his favorite trips to Utah, its because we spent more time with his siblings. Dave was also able to see three of his good friends while we there as well. Luckily our drive home was much better. We had great roads but had to sit in a line of cars for 2 hours until the road opened.
