The day before Thanksgiving we went to cut down our Christmas tree. It was pretty snowy in the mountain, so we couldn't make it up to where we have cut trees in the past. We actually ended up finding two good trees at the bottom of the mountain. Devon had to wear Spencer's hat because he forgot his. Our tree was small, but cute and fit our apartment perfectly.
This was a our first Thanksgiving without any family, but we still had a fun time. 3 families from the teacher housing got together for dinner, which was great because I only had to make 3 things instead of like 10. The best part was that the Carlson's who organized the party used to work at Frontier Pies, so they made beautiful and delicious pies, and tons of them- so we got to take home 2 pies without even having to bake them. Too bad i didn't take pictures, they were perfect.
One Friday we tried a new hike called Monarch Cave. We got pretty lost and ended up on top of a cliff looking down on the trail we wanted to be on. We found our way down and got on the right trail to this ruin. It was a pretty canyon, but not my favorite hike ever.
Devon got to Carrie a wiggling Carrie, she better learn to hike soon!

I got to see what you all have been doing for the past few months. What fun. What a great family. I'm so impressed that the boys are willing to try new adventures and be brave. I love that Carrie insisted that Leah be a princess with her. I really need to check the blogs more often. Thanks for sharing.
