We also visited Austin to see Mimi. I did not take many pictures apparently, but I got this sweet sequence of Mimi and Mavry. :)

Our Family Photos

These are my favorites from our photo session we had with Evie's babysitter on seminary campus. She did such a great job. It was actually a pretty cold day!

Thanksgiving at the Jones'

We started off Thanksgiving break with JM's side of the family at the Jones' house. The cousins had a whole lot of fun together as usual. We enjoyed nice weather and got to visit the park along with eating all the yummy food!

Downtime

In between trips to see family for Thanksgiving, we used our POGO pass at Amazing Jake's, the boys idea of a wonderful time. Wesley got to climb the wall, they both got to play video games galore, and eat as much cheap pizza as they wanted while watching a movie. 

We also squeezed in an evening trip to Six Flags during the break. The kids got to experience their first funnel cake on this visit!

Thanksgiving at Mimi's

This was our last Thanksgiving at Mimi's house. Of course we didn't know that at the time. We took a nice walk to the lake as usual and spent time with family.
