Thanksgiving in Pinetop

For Thanksgiving this year some of my family came up to Pinetop, AZ at the Nichols cabin which is nice because it is close to Snowflake. To help with making sure there was enough room, I watched Josh and Kortnei's dogs.

On Thanksgiving Day we all went to Woodland park in the morning to walk around the lake and play at the playground. It was a very nice and warm day.

Josh and Jordan watching in fascination as the rocks crashed through.

David enjoying the view. We spent a lot of time by the lake.

Every time we go to the cabin we always play Scrabble trying to beat our dad. This game was played after eating our delicious Thanksgiving dinner.

This is on Saturday. I decided it was good time to put up my Christmas decorations. Same things as last year just done a little differently.
All in all I had fun with my family as usual. I loved being silly with my nephew Sam and playing Scrabble with everyone. The dinner was fantastic as were the pies my mom made. I'm grateful for my family and for the chance to be with them on Thanksgiving Day. Love you guys!

It is always fun to get together with family. It is nice for the occassions that remind us to do that.
