Okay, so the weekend's not officially over yet, but I'm pretty sure we're not doing anything out of the ordinary tomorrow, so the HOLIDAY weekend is over, at least.
Thanksgiving Day was spent at Tim's sister's house in Evanston. It was a great day- lots of good food, all the right people, and weather conducive to kids playing outside! To add to the fun, Sandy had a new kid-sized four wheeler, so the kids were busy pretty much the whole day. Food? Who cares about food?

Tim spent the day splitting wood and playing football. Isn't he cute?
While the big kids did most of the ATV riding, the younger kids had a blast with cousins Logan and Junior. I believe they were saving puppies from a fire.
Friday was an experiment... I'll talk about it in my next post. I'm thinking it worked, though!!!!
Today we spent the afternoon/evening in Salt Lake. We started at the zoo (have to get our money's worth out of that zoo membership!).

On the teeter-totter at the zoo playground. Emma's face is in response to me sitting on the other end. Flattering, huh?
This picture was unreasonably difficult to get. Just getting all of my kids in the same place at the same time, looking the same (general) direction was a joke today!
After the zoo, we parked downtown and walked over to the Church Art Museum. They have a children's exhibit there right now called "I Am a Child of God". It is an interactive exhibit, so of course the kids loved it.

Wise men and shepherds. Sorry you can't see Mary and Baby Jesus.
When it got dark, we made our way across the street for the lights on Temple Square. They were beautiful, but you won't see much of that from my pictures. I was trying to use the "nighttime" setting on my camera.. Evidently I need a tripod or a steadier arm.
Hmm... Rebekah must be almost a teenager. There's that scowl again! Just kidding, Bek- I'm glad that as you get older you are growing into my friend as well as my daughter.
I guess it's time to get in the holiday spirit!
