Arizona is Warm, Idaho is Not

We had the very great privilege of going to a dear friend's wonderful wedding in the Mesa, Arizona LDS Temple the week before Thanksgiving. It was a lovely long weekend full of joy, laughter, good friends, good food, tears, and fun.

Sierra made a stunning bride. We are so happy for her and Jordan. Keegan was thrilled to be reunited with some very good friends of his. We were happy to escape the cold and spend time with people who are very dear to us and like family.

We were lucky enough to be there the day Sierra and Jordan came to the Steven's house to announce their engagement officially and we were beyond excited to be at their sweet sealing.

We enjoyed the warm weather  very much. It was so lovely getting to spend Sunday after all of the activities of the previous two days lazing in the sun and playing. We really do love Arizona and hope to make it our home in the future. For now, we will settle on visiting when we can.

Keegan was so happy to be on a plane for the first time and Connor was the best baby by sleeping through both flights.

It was a great start to Thanksgiving break!

We had a lovely Thanksgiving at Craig's sister's house. We had so much fun eating, talking and playing tons of games with our nieces and nephews. We had a bunch of intense rounds of sardines and then taught the kids a really fun card game called KEMPS.

We had so much to be thankful for in November, including the return of my good health after a brief scare with some funky test results. What a blessed  life we live.
