Thanksgiving Fun in the Desert

Emily trying to get Abby to enjoy a horse ride. All Abby is thinking is, "Get me off this thing!"

Heidi getting ready to ride.
The little boys and their personal fire.

Hallie and Gemma

Holly, Brecklyn, Staci and Parker enjoying the warm fire (even though you can't see it)

Gemma and Hallie stood here for the longest time eating all the M&M's out of the trailmix.

Holly and Mia give us a smile

Jeff, Holly and Brittany ride off into the sunset...or maybe just the afternoon sun.

Some of our family enjoying a fire before it even got dark. It was a little cooler than normal.

Some of our fun family members enjoying each other.

Heidi is driving the golf cart, but she picked up a few strays on the way. Powell, Emily, Hallie, Tanner, Mason, Gemma and Loni go for a ride.

Hallie is ready to go for a real horsey ride. The weather started out raining in the morning, but we had a beautiful day, even though we had clouds. There was no dust due to the morning rain and there were no bees because of the moisture. We have had those in the past few years due to the drought. What a fun day we had.

Crue, Loni, Wyatt and Heidi enjoy a ride on Uncle Kelly's golf cart.

Some of our kids enjoying our Thanksgiving meal in the desert. Not your normal Thanksgiving setting, but it's been our family's for almost 30 years.

Jeff just got back from riding and was actually getting off the horse. I made him stay on until I got a picture. He really can ride by himself, LOL

Matt, Abby, Hallie and Emily pose for a picture.
