Thanksgiving 2012

This is a beautiful cornucopia that was the
flower arrangement at work the week of Thanksgiving.
It was full of fresh fruit and vegetables
and it was magnificent!

So . . . we went to St George for Thanksgiving.
On Wednesday, the Portlandian Woods came
for a surprise visit!
It happened to be Cael's 9th birthday
so we celebrated at a lunch at Red Robin.
Then took a few shots of the family - cousins!
The whole group - minus the photographer!
The Scott Wood family.
We were so happy to see them and spend some time
with them!
Then we got to work
making pies.
Don't we have some excellent pie skills?
 
Second only to the actual pie . . . we love these little treats!

Next morning
it was time to make the feast! 
 Mark making stuffing.
 Fixings for the relish tray.
 Stuffing celery - a Wightman tradition!
 Mr. and Mrs. Celery (delicious)!
  
And then it was time to EAT!

So happy that Mom and Priscilla and John were able to join us!

If you are counting . . . 
we had a pie for each of us + 1 for good measure! 
 Then we took some photos for our
Christmas card.
FYI: I can share this one because it didn't make the cut!

The weather was beautiful so we went for a little walk around
the park next to the condo after dinner.
 Everything in St. George is still fall-y!
 I love these grasses - and Courtney!
Awwww . . .  cute!
 The next morning we went to breakfast
and took a short drive through Snow Canyon.
 Always a St. George must.
But mostly
We relaxed - and played games on our iPhones!

It was a good time!
