Western Retreat

For Thanksgiving this year Ben and I headed west to visit his parents. We had a great week and wished we could have stayed longer. Highlights include:

Thanksgiving Dinner

Black Friday hike up the canyon.

You know who really loves Black Friday? Wild turkeys who live to see another year.

Ah, sunshine. Winter weather has been so kind to us this year.

We moved on to the next holiday as soon as Thanksgiving was over and got a head start on Christmas:

Lights at Temple Square

Shopping in Park City

Alligator boots - talk about classy.

Ben fell in love with the "spirit" hat line. Seriously. As in, this is officially on his wish list until he gets one.

Toy shopping makes everyone feel like a kid again.

Oh, come on! A trip to Utah AFTER we move. That's not right ;)

I'm glad that you had a fun time:). You would look super cute in the alligator boots!

I think you should definitely get that hat for Ben for Christmas.

Ditto on the warm weather, there is no snow on the ground here (even though my Christmas cards say Merry Christmas from snowy Minnesota).
