November!

November was quite a crazy month for us....so crazy that I am not blogging about it until the middle of DECEMBER!! Time just flies by! Our Thanksgiving was great. We had a wonderful weekend spent with our families! We started out our weekend by helping my parents with the remodel of their home. The girls just watched...and the guys worked!! Carl helped my dad tile....so ofcourse McKay had to help also!!





We had our Thanksgiving feast at Kieth and Hariella's house with the ENTIRE family except for Kieth's oldest son Chris and his family, but the rest of the the ten kids, and their families were there!! It was so much fun! We ate and ate and ate, and we also had our Christmas party since they would not be here for Christmas! We did a white elephant gift exchange, and we brought two "snuggies" for our gifts! Nate got the hot pink one and he looked pretty good in it!haha





Kieth and Hariella's farewell(they are going to Honolulu, Hawaii to serve a mission) was on Sunday. They both did such a wonderful job! They had asked all of the family to sing, "I Love to See the Temple" and "Love is Spoken Here". The kids sang first, and McKay sang the whole song. It was really cute to hear all the kids sing...it was quite an emotional moment! Then the adults started to sing. Well...Carl and McKay were right by the microphone and McKay just started belting out his own little song! It went something like this..."Raaaraaa Raa RAA raaa...lalala"!! It was so funny....everyone went from crying to laughing! He got a lot of compliments afterwards!! We had a big dinner after sacrament meeting, and then it was time to say goodbye for 18monthes! I know it is going to go fast, but it sure is strange to know they won't be around for Christmas and things. They are both great examples. They will be amazing missionaries!!
