thanksgiving

Jordan's nephew, Taylor, came home from his mission in Japan the week before Thanksgiving. We wanted to attend his homecoming in Sacrament Meeting, so we invited ourselves to his family's house for Thanksgiving. They were glad to let us come, but they live in Amarillo, Texas, so we had to fly. We were slightly nervous about flying with the kids, it being their first time on a plane, but they were amazing! (Trey was in heaven seeing all the "air panes") Trey slept through two of the flights, and Talya only fussed (not cried) at the end of one as we were descending (only because she was a little tired). It was great! We really had such a fun time. Taylor gave a wonderful report of his mission and we really enjoyed hearing all of his stories. We were able to celebrate Katy's birthday with her too. We loved being with Jordan's sister's family, who we don't get to see very often. Thank you Jeff, Katy, Taylor, and Cameron for having us!!

So glad to hear you had a great trip. I've been wondering how the kids did after we talked about your trip. Talya's gotten even bigger than the last time I saw her just a few weeks ago.

That must have been an amazing trip! I served in Japan...so cool for your nephew!! We are going to Hawaii for Christmas and I'm nervous about the plane rides (Mostly b/c we are taking a red eye). But reading your plane success helped!
