Giving Thanks

Since I didn't take any pictures of Thanksgiving day :( I wanted to do 30 things I am thankful for...
But first I want to share what Brodee and I did for Thanksgiving this year. It was a little different than last year, but overall it was still pretty fun with lots of food, and leftovers! This year we had a "feast" with a few different families in which we are all related someway...Brodee and I, my parents with Holly and Jordan, Carl and Loralee's family, Eric and Kathy's family, Austin and Lindsay's family, Clint Udy's family, and grandma Kempton all gathered at the high school this year for thanksgiving dinner. Everyone was in charge of bringing something and it actually turned out better than I thought. It was fun to have people to share the holiday with, especially people that you like:) After dinner, Loralee, Bonnie, and I went up to the annual Elba craft fair. My mom and Kathy were already up there. I bought lots of cool things which I decorated my house for the holidays :)
