Thanksgiving - November 28th, 2013
This year we all met at Brad's house in Las Vegas for Thanksgiving. While we were waiting for him to get off work, we passed out a few small presents for the kids. Great Grandma Hawker had made a Christmas gift for each of her great grandkids, and the week before she died, she made me promise to give it to them for her. I hope it is something they will all treasure because it is the last homemade gifts she made. Unfortunately, Brads schedule got changed at the last minute, and after waiting hours we went ahead and ate without him there. As soon as Brad got home we went out in the dark to a little park by their house and took a new family picture. Then we went to the Ethel M Chocolate factory to the beautiful light display they have outside. It was fun getting to spend time with all the kids and grandkids!!
Jubilee Of Trees - November 23rd, 2013
We went to the annual Jubilee of Trees at the Dixie Center. Mandi & Ali performed with their dance studio. Lilly was so excited to hear the music and dancing. Then we walked around and saw Santa and looked at all the pretty trees. It was a good way to get into the Christmas spirit. Sam got a little bubble blower gun and had a lot of fun blowing bubbles everywhere!!!

Salt Lake City - November 2013
We went to Salt Lake City to watch Alex perform at the Conference Center. While we were there we went through Temple Square, and then shopped at the City Creek Mall. We attended a funeral , so we were unable to go to Gwyneth's Harp recital, but she played for us on Sunday before we went home. We also went in for a minute and watched Ellie practice for her performance in her school play. What a talented family. After church, we took a few family pictures with Scott's family.
