November Ends


We went to Fresno for Thanksgiving and enjoyed ourselves for sure. It feels like such a vacation when we go somewhere because Jake is always around to help with Kate and I am not at my own home with always some project or chore to complete. We stayed in Primm, NV on the way there at a casino hotel for $13 a night. Our breakfast the next morning from McDonalds was actually a few cents more than our room for the night. It worked out so well, and the hotel was nice and surprisingly clean more like an $80 room. I so recommend it for anyone traveling to California if you don't want to drive through the night. The weather was fairly nice for us, we didnt hit any snow driving at least, and Kate enjoyed playing outside on the farm. Seen here with an orange she picked off the tree herself. It did take us over 16 hours to get home though. We had brought a portable DVD player and Kate and I watched The Little Mermaid and Alaadin both twice. When we arrived home I was amazed to see that although it was December, I still had flowers alive and well in my yard, and not a snowflake in sight.

Since you went to CA for Thanksgiving does this mean you're staying in Utah for Christmas? We're coming and Mindy & I want to plan a get together w/ the whole gang!
