A Thanksgiving to remember.

Thanksgiving this year was a special one for the Stacy family. Not only did we have Jeff, Brittany and Paislee come out from Utah, but it was probably the last time our whole family will be all together at Grandma and Grandpa Stacy's beautiful home and property. We never wanted to admit the time would come when we would no longer get to spend endless hours "playing" at Grandma and Grandpa's gorgeous property but the day is coming and sadly they will be moving out in the next month or so. We are so grateful for all the wonderful memories that have been made there and we will never forget. But, life happens and times change and the house and property are sold. I think I may be more sad then Mark who grew up in that house since he was 2 years old. Mark does better with change. But not me, and I know my kids are already talking about it and they are sad too. Well, so for Thanksgiving we headed up on Wednesday and stayed til Friday night and made the best of our 3 days there with everyone and we had a BLAST! I tried to get as many pictures as I could of the house and everything so there are a lot of pics!! (and it's not even half of what i took :))
   
We did everything from decorating turkey cookies, jumping on the trampoline, swinging on the tire swing, taking walks down to the creek, riding bikes, riding quads, motorcycles, sledding?, eating amazingly yummy food, more jumping, running, playing basketball, shooting guns, riding more quads, eating more food, building a fire, raking leaves and pine needles, celebrating Christmas with Jeff and Brittany(since they won't be here for Christmas), celebrating Hailey's 1st birthday, more eating, more playing outside and most of all enjoying just being together at such a beautiful place!! I am so truly grateful for such a wonderful family and for my amazing In-laws! This Thanksgiving was definitely one to be remembered!
