This year we had Rock’s parents up for Thanksgiving.
On Tuesday the girls went to Wood Creations to make some beautiful things.

Liberty created her own bunny, not following any pattern or directions. I am so thankful for her courageous creativity. There is a sign on the wall there that says “She who leaves behind a trail of glitter is never forgotten.” And another one that says Creativity is messy.” That’s my girl.

Our next adventure was dinner at Bruuchis. An absolute must for my father in law. And then on to the awesome lights at Scentsy. This was our first year doing it and it was so cool-literally and figuratively. It was a bitter cold night, windy and freezing! But we survived. Barely. Our last stop was Crumbl Cookie. My in laws were skeptical, but they have seen the light. 😉 I am thankful for warm, melt in your mouth cookies on a cold night.




Liberty and Grandma were in charge of pies.

Apparently we only needed a Costco pumpkin pie, a regular size pumpkin pie, a Costco Apple pie, a Tripple berry pie and a French Silk pie so Liberty gave the third pumpkin pie to Grandpa Don who never gets to eat pie. 🙄 These Hymas people eat a lot of pie. And if you ask Grandpa there still wasn’t enough. I am thankful for French Silk Pie.


Our turkey bowl is famous! We made the news this year! https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ktvb.com/amp/article/news/local/turkey-bowl-pick-up-game-is-boise-park-tradition/277-0fa7e8be-11bd-489c-b268-8fccb12f992b


Nancy did my least favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner for me, but Neil did my 2nd least favorite thing: going to Costco-the week of Thanksgiving. That is a scary thing at any Costco in the country but it is the worst here in Boise. I am so thankful for my wonderful in laws. And not just for the turkey cleaning and Costco shopping. 😉
My favorite was the Catholic Radio tree. Reagan is my second favorite cellist next to Quattricelli, which actually isn't a cellist but a quartet of goofy but talented cellists. Reagan, you really filled out and warmed up the sound of your fiddle group. Way to go. Cade played a tremendous piece in his recital too. Way more difficualt than the others who played there.
