Thanksgiving this year was a little different instead of having it on Thursday we had it on Friday up in St. George at Amanda and Shane's and after we ate and visited we drove to the Spoerri's for Jordan's mission farewell, On the way there Dillon decided to get sick and threw up numerous times and we quickly learned that it's so not fun to travel with a sick kid, luckily it was only a 24hr. bug and he was feeling better the next day, and they all had a blast playing in the snow and in Tristan's snow fort! Sunday we woke up to snow falling and freezing cold temperatures outside OK maybe not freezing cold temperatures but us dessert rats are not used to that kind of weather!! We made it safely to the church, but not without Darin purposely sliding on the roads and the boys yelling DO IT AGAIN DAD!! Jordo did a good job on his talk, but I learned that he was going to call Kasaundra and I up to bear our testimonies if he had time left over!! It's a good thing it was a joke because I become a blubbering idiot anytime I get near a mic. We had to leave ASAP to make it home in the bad weather, the snow and scenery were beautiful but the driving conditions were a little scary, we saw a truck doing 360's behind us right after we passed it and there was an accident by parowan and to avoid being stuck in traffic we did a little bajaing on some side rode and ended up getting stuck in traffic anyway, but it was fun according to Darin & the kids!! (who needs 4-wheel drive when you have a Toyota corolla!!) The drive from Cedar down that mountain was the worst and I was so happy when we reached St. George and out of the snow, a five hour trip took us a little over eight hours but it was a trip we would've made a hundred times to go see Jordan!!
