Thanksgiving and Katie's Birthday


*********THANKSGIVING ********

Thur. Nov 27th Thanksgiving Day: It was a wonderful day and full of good memories. The girls helped Julie get the dinner ready and there was some great bonding time there. They had a fun time with the turkey and Brittany has decided she will never cook a turkey herself. She didn’t think it was all that funny. Grandma and Grandpa Faerber and Alma came down from Salt Lake and got here right at 4:00 and Josh and Kirby got here right after.

We all went around the table and said what we are thankful for. Obviously, this year most of us were thankful for our family and being together like never before. I, especially am thankful to be with the family and actually to just be alive. It was a great traditional thanksgiving dinner with all the usual food including a bunch of pies. Then we played the WII and watched the video of Josh’s wedding. It was really neat. It was especially fun to watch Grandma and Grandpa Faerber and Alma do the WII fit.
tried the penguin game and we all laughed till we almost cried. It was hilarious.

*******KATIE'S BIRTHDAY *******


Katie’s Birthday: Today was also Katie’s birthday and we had a great time celebrating her birthday as well as Thanksgiving. It made it double the fun and also made it so that Grandma and Grandpa and Alma could be here for both. That really meant a lot to Katie. She got a real nice digital camera and has had a lot of fun taking lots of pictures. She got a huge cake, but because there was so much other food (including pies) we will be eating that cake for a year.
