Thanksgiving 2016

We were so blessed to be invited to someone's home for Thanksgiving.
I had to work that night and we had considered celebrating a different day but someone was kind and we were able to enjoy a feast with friends. 
I am the worst about taking pictures but I did get a few- mostly of the food. 
 2 turkeys, a ham, potatoes, 2 types of gravy, 2 jellos, 2 stuffings, sweet potatoes, cheesy rice, rolls (3 kinds), green bean casserole, corn, cranberry sauce.... seriously a feast!!
 The missionaries were there. We love these 2 Elder Barber (left) and Elder Broberg (right).  Elder Broberg is getting transferred this week and he will be greatly missed. He has such a bright future ahead of him and is so very talented.  Elder Barber will be wonderful leading the zone and we look forward to meeting his new companion.  
 There were so many desserts and they were all so good! I tried something new and made a cinnamon roll apple pie- the crust is made from refrigerator cinnamon rolls rolled flat.  It was really yummy! 
 We were at the Phillips and they have tons of books and so Joseph was in heaven! He LOVED reading the Calvin and Hobbs! 
Stealing some of my dessert! 
It was a wonderful day and I truly have so many things to be thankful for.
Food, family, friends, faith, Jesus, Book of Mormon, Temple, running water, electricity, handy husband, books, mom, dad, health, running, school, teachers, braces, dentist, doctors, jobs, flowers, .... these are a few of the things that made our thankful tree.
