The Turkey Trot
So this Thanksgiving Amber my neighbor and I decided to put on a race. We wanted to do the Orem Thanksgiving Day race, but it is like 50 dollars. So we thought lets do it ourselves and just invite people we know our friends, family, and ward members. It was kinda crazy we had about a 100 people show up. We made up shirts that had a turkey running with an Ipod. We had a 4 mile race and a 2 mile run and walk. And we also had a kids race 1/2 mile. It was really fun. All of us did the race. Nick did the 2 mile I ran the 4 mile, Maddie ran the 2 mile she was amazing, Bridger and Kolby ran the kids race. They were so proud of their self they can't wait tell next year. It was nice to start the day of eating with fun exercise. We got to enjoy the day up at my mom's house for some good eats. It was nice to spend time with the family. We always try to bring new games and play we had a lot of fun games to play Blokus and Ticket to Ride. Then the next day we headed up the canyon to Mutual Dell for Nick's side Thanksgiving. It was so nice to spend time up in the mountains with the kids. The dinner was great. All the girls had to pick up a couple of extra dishes. Because Pam and Ben had to run to his brothers funeral. We missed them but they joined us later that night. We had a bunch of fun we played a lot of games and just visited. The kids were everywhere. They love to hang out with their cousins. I'm so thankful for a big loving family that is close.
