Thanksgiving

Lets talk about Thanksgiving 2014, shall we?  It started off with a bang and didn't get any better.  The day before Thanksgiving, Greyson started getting a raspy voice. Then he started coughing and by 2am Thanksgiving morning, he was wheezing really bad, coughing and not breathing very well.  We tried the cold air outside and the steamy shower air, but nothing was helping or working, so we made our way to the AF Hospital ER. They just opened a new ER, so that was nice, and it wasn't busy, so we got in and started treating him with a Breathing treatment and steroids. We got home about 5:30 and got a little bit more sleep before Thanksgiving was to start.

As we were cleaning the house, getting ready for our Thanksgiving guests to come, Gavin went to the bathroom and came and told us that the toilet was broken.  That is all we need before having people over, a broken toilet.  Luckily it was just the handle that broke and made it so that it wouldn't flush, an easy fix!  We decided to deep fry a turkey this year and had the missionaries over as well as my brother Jason and Mike's mom Mary.  Right before dinner was going to start, Jason came inside to tell us that someone hit our Durango.  We parked it out on the street in front of our house so that Mike could deep fry the turkey without worrying about the car. Well the across the street neighbor didn't see our car or something and backed right into the Durango denting the driver side door, and destroying the side view mirror. We still haven't gotten it fixed (that is a whole nother issue)

After dinner and everyone left, we cleaned up and relaxed because it was a stressful, busy day.  I think we were all in bed by 9 and asleep shortly after.  Jason woke up the next day and left early and we took off to Hill Air Force Base to check out the Black Friday deals.  Even though Greyson was sick and the neighbor hit our car, I am Thankful this year for so much.  I am Thankful for Car insurance and Health insurance.  I am Thankful that we have our health and 3 cute, healthy boys.  I am Thankful that we have jobs that help us afford our house and cars and things that we need and sometimes want.  We have a lot to be Thankful for this year and I am grateful for the Gospel and family!

Our Turkey! (She tasted so good!)
