Thanksgiving Weekend:
We loved spending Thanksgiving in Manti with everyone. Thanks to all who cooked and traveled so far to make it so fun. *See Robyn's blog for Thanksgiving day pictures*

Friday, the Wolf went to his very first movie post-op. He and Becky sat in the handicap section and propped his legs up on booster seats. It was a 2hr and 45 min movie... small accomplishments mean a lot!
...
Saturday, Becky, Larry, Riley, me, Grant, Wyatt, Lindsey, Chloe, Sadie and Scout all went to cut down our Christmas trees. It was snowy and cold which of course made it even more fun.

I never thought I would ever meet anyone as picky as Martha at picking out tree's... until I met her assistant... Riley. Those two hiked and hiked until they each picked out the best two tree's on the mountain. I'm too impatient and cut down the first one I saw. The funny thing is our tree is a Charlie Brown tree and Riley's tree is the best shaped tree I've ever seen.
Then Scout ate the pliers. Only Chloe could get them away from him... many minutes later.
I guess I shouldn't have left them on the ground.
Oops.
The Wolf was there. He chilled in the warm car while we all froze in the snow.

Then we went to this awesome diner in this tiny town. Thanks Lindsay, the only one not "too cool" to pose for my picture.

We pigged out on cheeseburgers, fries, sodas and milkshakes and fought over quarters for the
jute box.
It was a successful tree cutting day.
