House full of Turkeys :)

This Thanksgiving was bittersweet. I love Holidays... BUT our family was missed. VERY much missed. :) We were 'volunteered' to do a turkey for the wards' thanksgiving. FIRST time for everything right?! It was really fun makin the turkey and actually having our house smell like, well... Turkey. We were proud of our little bird and how well it turned out :) Too bad we had a small turn out to our ward's Thanksgiving... (hope it's not because they found out who was makin turkey ! ) Nonetheless, we made the best of it and enjoyed the thanksgiving day parade, spending time with friends and looking at the Black friday ads, and standing in line AT FREAKING MIDNIGHT at TOYS R US !!! Now, THAT'S one for the books people.


Wes and our little bird friend



Paisley and Kate! What would we do without those two silly turkeys!




Here's what we're THANKFUL for this THANKSGIVING.




Watching the DORA float on the Thanksgiving parade :)


LASTLY, it was the very end of the day and we realized we didnt have anyone take a picture of our little family. Thanks to the self timer on my camera, we got one. (Despite the awkward crop job.)


WE ARE THANKFUL FOR SO MANY THINGS AT THIS WONDERFUL TIME OF YEAR. MAY YOUR DAYS BE MERRY AND BRIGHT ,
LOVE, THE WRIGHT'S



PS. Happy Black Friday!
It was my first time EVER going out into the madness, and from here on out I will be doing it every YEAR!

You are the cutest. I love the reading your post but sometimes it makes me want to cry. I wish we were not so far apart. One day "RIGHT" we will be able to share some of these wonderful memories together. Also I love you new picture at the top of your blog. I don't think you could get any cuter.

How fun that you made a turkey! I have yet to do that by myself. Paisley looks so cute! She looks so much older. Isn't it sad how fast they grow up.

We LOVE Black Friday Shopping. We have gone the last 3 years and have scored every year. If you are able to brave the crowds the sales are totally worth it!! Glad your Thanksgiving was a good one :)

~~**Can you believe that I have NEVER done the Black Friday Shopping thing??? Nope. I have been working in retail for the past 6+ years so, that means that I get to work the day after Thanksgiving.. ALWAYS... but, I think it's for the Better! TRUST ME!! I prob. would be going crazy. Did you get some good things?? It sounds like your Thanksgiving was a SUCCESS =) You guys made the Turkey??? I can't believe it. You will be PRO'S from now on. =)**~~
