Todd and Bryan along with his family came to visit us the week of Thanksgiving. We had such a wonderful time having them with us. Dallin loved playing with his cousins. Amos also warmed up to everyone and enjoyed the company.

Uncle Bryan brought Nerf guns for to play with and they were a hit. They played them after dinner the night they got there and throughout the week.
The kids had fun playing together but sometimes they would sound like siblings and fight. So we got out the paper and crayons and they colored somewhat quietly while they made there own creations. Melissa printed off some Thanksgiving activities that they also enjoyed doing.
One afternoon we headed to a wonderful park so the kids could feed some ducks and play. They had so much fun feeding the bread to the ducks. Amos enjoyed watching the ducks. When the excitement from feeding the ducks was over they had a blast playing on the playground. They have a big climbing rocks that all the kids loved especially Blake and Dallin. They had so much fun climbing together. Sara loved helping Amos on the slides. They loved running around and playing at the park.
The day before Thanksgiving Doug took they day off and we had all day. We went to an indoor safari park and they kids had fun going on a little train ride, riding animals, playing mini golf, playing in the ball pits and bounce houses. When they kids were done playing we went to Rudy's BBQ for lunch. Dallin and Blake had fun playing a hunting game.
We loved having family for Thanksgiving. Lara and Melissa cooked the night before and all morning and the meal turned out just right. We had plenty of food and more pies then we needed. The kids had fun making gumdrop turkeys and their own chocolate pies. Lara and Melissa went and did some black Friday shopping late into the night. They had so much fun.
On Friday we went to Cowboys stadium for our first Hansen vs Washington Turkey bowl. Uncle Todd was the ref. Uncle Doug had some fun jerseys made for the occasion and it was so much fun. All the boys had fun playing football on the field. After the football game we went to a restaurant with a huge slide and all the kids had so much fun going down the big slide. Amos even got to go down the slide with Mom.
We were so Thankful they came and spent Thanksgiving with us. We loved having them with us. We enjoyed playing games with them. They got to join us for our Thanksgiving family home evening. Melissa enjoyed going shopping with Lara. Dallin and Amos loved playing with cousins. Thanks for coming to visit us, Todd, Bryan, Lara, Sara and Blake.
