Thanksgiving

 To start things off, Claire lost a front tooth.  Now she is a true first grader.

 Grandpa and Grandpa Adams, plus Uncle Dan cam to visit for Thanksgiving.  We had a nice dinner and invited some of Aaron's friends from work.  It was a nice time.  Here we are at the Mesa Temple lights.

 These funny kids of ours.

 On Saturday we said good-bye to Uncle Dan who had to go back to California to play the violin in concerts or something and we took a trip to Prescott, AZ.  Claire posed at the Gingerbread house exhibit.

 This was Alex's first trip.  He loved the train.

 There was also a light parade to enjoy.  Here Aaron saves Capt. Smooshy from being smooshed by the parade.

 He finally decided it was better to enjoy from the side lines.

 

Sadly, Baby Spide smooshed his nose at the new play ground near our house.  It may be broken.  So we made a trip to the emergency room to have it looked at.  The doctor there said that it could be broken and that after the swelling goes down we will need to take him to an ENT to examine.  

 

 The Gilbert temple is almost complete. It was nice to visit the site and the kids got a little piece of the temple walls to take home.  We are thrilled to be able to be so close to two temples.  They are so beautiful and more importantly the work that happens in them is so wonderful.  We know that we are a forever family because of the blessings of the temple.
