Thanksgiving+Talon's Birthday=a very fun trip home

Thanksgiving day we spent in Park City with Justin's Hunsaker side of the family. It was such a good day filled with lots of yummy food, wonderful company, and tons of time to just lounge around after eating ourselves stuffed!
All of the family. I think this is a great picture! Of course no one really wanted to take the picture at all but I think its worth it in the end to set the camera up and have Justin run into the picture at the last second. With such a big group it is fun to see how the picture will turn out. :) I think this one turned out really cute and I think we are only missing a couple of family members who were playing camera shy!


Classic Curtis.
Justin's aunt Verna made this delicious salad which is my very favorite! I was so excited to see that she had made it for part of our Thanksgiving feast. And when I told her how excited I was she said she made it especially for me! Thanks Verna!
We celebrated a few family birthdays while we were together and Mckenzie's was one of them. Her birthday was on Thanksgiving day this year! And Grandpa Doyle made this cake for her. She was very excited!

Grandma Hunsaker has a hot tub and of course the little boys just couldn't resist and were in the hot tub as soon as they were done eating.
Justin's aunt Jana made this cake for the rest of the November family birthday kids. Isn't it just so stinkin' cute! Perfect for Thanksgiving.


Talon's birthday was the Saturday after Thanksgiving (November 28th). The big 19th birthday! And we celebrated big. And to start it all off we went bowling (And when I say we I mean me and my family- Justin was at the big BYU vs. U of U football game in Provo- yeah right like he was about to miss that! - :) not that I blame him- plus we won! Go BYU!!!).
We played boys against girls for three games of bowling. The girls lost and out of the boys I think Talon and Lance were the highest scorers.









And of course Maccoy was dying to be a part of it all. He was fascinated by all that was going on around him and he wanted badly the freedom to crawl around- especially right down our lane. :)
And for dinner we spoiled ourselves with Talon's choice to go to Tepanyaki! Oh my goodness the entertainment was amazing and the food was even better!




The fire got oooh's and aaah's out of all of us. Maccoy freaked out! He was shaking for a few minutes from being so surprised by the sudden onion volcano rupture. He was fine after a minute though and he was pretty entertained by all the stuff going on at our table the whole meal.
We all sang Happy Birthday to Talon after eating and he got this cute little ice cream.


And then after dinner we decorated the Christmas tree- while Talon watched- well he kinda watched he would get distracted and get on the computer while me, Hunter, and Maddie decorated the tree. Talon loves to have the tree up and decorated but he's not really into doing the actual decorating.
