Thanksgiving 09

We had Thanksgiving at my mom's house this year. Everyone was able to be to be there and I have to admit I loved kissing on Baby Ava's cheeks=)

Brady and Ava

My two best friends my mommy and sissy!

Every year Tiff makes place cards for everyone. Aren't these cute. I wish I was that crafty!

I was so happy that Brooklyn and Paislee were fast friends. They were constantly together and didn't fight once=)

It wouldn't be Thanksgiving without the older cousins wrestling with the younger ones. Luckily it was all in good fun=)




Just one more picture of that cute little face!

Sun Valley Gondola Rides!

Today was the ribbon cutting ceremony for the new Gondola rides in Sun Valley so they were having free rides and hot cocoa. Brian was a little reluctant when we showed up and the line was really long but it moved fast and the ride and view were definitely worth it!

Waiting in line with hot cocoa and the view from below the gondola.

Inside the Gondola. Brady asked why it showed that you can't stick your arm out. I said well you don't want your arm ripped off do you. He said oh yeah that makes sense=)

If you look close at Paislee's face you can see she is a little apprehensive because she just spilled all her hot cocoa on the floor of the gondola. Luckily the ladies with us had napkins=)

The view from the lodge at the top!



Of course the kids saw a snow hill and immediately started down on there butts and belly's!

I love this little girl=)


We got free stickers at one of the booths when Paislee stuck this one on her forehead I had to take a picture!
