Let the feast begin!

Darling baby Tristen!

After dinner Addison taught our kids about running down Uncle Steve's hill in the back yard.  It seems to be a favorite passtime of hers.  They had a ball in the fresh air and sun shine!

I love the grass stained tights displaying how hard Addie played on the hill!

Thank you for a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner Dawn and Steve!  I am so greatful for our family, for a big sister that still includes my young family, for watching my neices and nephew's grow into amazing adults and time spent together....Oh, and for pecan pie and sweet potatoes!!!!

Happy Turkey Day!!!

Gobble, gobble, gobble

Eden and her pumpkin turkey

Eden's preschool Thanksgiving Day party

So cute....
Happy Thanksgiving!

The night before Thanksgiving I asked Carson if pumpkin pie was his favorite kind of pie.  He answered, "No offense Mom, but your pumpkin pie tastes like styrafoam!"  I think this was due to fact that I had been passing off a sugar-free, crustless pumpkin pie on my kids to help me stay on my diet. I love the fact that children are so honest!  I'm thankful for my beautiful family and amazing children!!!

The Bushman's

The Bushman Clan

Grandpa Riley and Julie came to Ogden for a quick visit last weekend.  They had not been here in years and took the opportunity to invite all of the Bushman's out to dinner.  We, Bushman's, like each other and always enjoy spending time together.  It was nice to catch up with Dad and Julie and so very nice of them to bring us all together.

Elk Hunting in Cache Valley

Jon and Rick were successful in both drawing for the same late cow elk permits for an area up in Cache Valley this year.  Unfortunately, the mild fall weather we've had this year did not bring the herd down low enough for them. They did have some harsh winter weather to contend with, it just wastn't enough to help the hunt. Jon captured these beautiful winter shots, however, he would have much preferred to have shots at an elk... maybe next year.
