Thanksgiving Weekend

Thanksgiving Day we spent at my Grandma and Grandpa Christensen's house. We had an early dinner at about 2:00, and the food was so good we stuffed ourselves a couple of times. We went back to our hotel room to put the boys down for a nap, then headed to my parent's house because they had some early Christmas a birthday presents for the boys.
Jace was cheesing it up for every camera he saw even though he had been sick since Tuesday and was feeling pretty lousy earlier that day.
For Christmas they got an electric Polaris Sportsman that I'm sure they will have tons of fun on soon.
Kaylee and Colton being silly playing cards.
Jace playing with Grandpa, pounding on the big ball and growling.
For Dallon's birthday he got a flashlight that he was supposed to wear on his head, but he thought it was a camera and went around for the next couple of days saying "smile" and making shutter noises.
On Friday we got together with all of my siblings and their families to have some family pictures taken (Jace and Dallon were not in the mood), then we had breakfast at Elmer's. We spent some time with Colton and Whitney and their new baby Andee. That evening we picked up some pizza and went to Jeremy and Liz Branson's house for a couple of hours and just lingered and played with some friends there. We went back to our hotel and swam in the pool with Kaylee, my cousin Kourtney, and a couple of their friends until we got kicked out.
Saturday morning we packed up, made a couple of stops to say some good-byes and headed on our way. We make a stop in La Grande, and made it home a little after 9:00.
Today we are trying to recover. Dallon is sick with what Jace had last week, so we'll see how things go for him to go to school this week.
Hope you all had a fantastic holiday, and that this holiday season is just as wonderful.
