Thanksgiving

I reallize that Thanksgiving was almost a week ago, but I feel like it was yesterday! We've been so busy around here! Justin has all of his end-of-semester work going on, and I feel like I haven't had a minute since we got back from Mesa! We had a great time, saw a lot of family, and even got some Christmas shopping done. :)
Here's one of my whole family (missing my dad and Brandi's husband, Tim)


I had to post this next picture, because we had quite an adventure! After a long morning of shopping, Brooke and I decided to take Britt and Ellee (along with Brandi's girls, Jillen and Jensen) to the playplace at the mall....well after just a few minutes Ellee came over to sit on Brooke's lap. I think I even commented that Britt never wants to sit on my lap for cuddles...Then Ellee puked...all over her arm, stomach, Brooke's back and the bench where we sat! Of course, we had nothing to clean it up, because we had left our strollers, diaperbags and everything with my mom and Brandi! Right away, I went into 'hero-mode' and dashed through the mall to find the strollers, then I dashed to the other side of the mall to get the housekeeping people. I think I burned all the calories I had eaten the day before! Anyway, in this picture (from my phone) Brooke's face captures the spirit of the moment...although the security guard behind her looks like he might barf too. :) Ellee just looks oblivious, but if you look in the back of the pic, you'll see a lady with a funny look on her face. That's my favorite part of the picture! :)

You were the hero of the day! I think the mall picture turned out a LOT bigger on your blog than mine...scary! But...I agree that the woman in the background is hilarious. I wish we could have captured all the grossed out looks of everyone around.

I wish I would think to use my cell phone camera! Because the look on your face when you were running to get me and Brandi was great! We definitely had a fun day! Poor Ellee didn't even get to enjoy a cookie though! Oh well, that was more for us!

Oh Bri, you're such a sweet sister!! It was sure a fun day and I am so glad that you and Britt decided to stay down and shop with us!! Jillen sure did enjoy playing with him! Oh, and seeing you too... ;)
