Tanksgiving!!! Nothing better than a thanksgiving with my family, in my ALMOST favorite place ever. r,a

This past thanksgiving I got to go up to Oregon to see my family. My aunt, Lynnanne, was very ill, and it brought our whole entire huuuuge family up to Beaverton to get to do the thing us Taylor's do best-- BE THE MOST AMAZING FAMILY EVER.

So, mostly the trip was us just getting to be together, and to hang out. I've grabbed a few of the photos which I really think sum up our times there, and will discuss in brief detail (say detail the fancy way in your mind while reading that please, de-tail) the goings ons on the trip.

Multnoma Falls:

We got to take a day trip to Multnoma. I've been SO MANY times in my life, but I always love getting to see how beautiful the scenery is. I also love getting to sing along to Mylie Cyrus (how do you spell that girls name?) songs on the way up in the big 12 seater van. It is always so much fun just getting to mess around with my cousins.

For Thanksgiving we went over to the church. First we had an intense round of family b-ball. Yes I did play in a skirt and some heels, and yes I was dang good at it. Mostly it just turned into Julianne, Taylor, and I trying to tackle each other, but hey, isn't that what basketball is all about? Oh wait-- that's a different sport. Anyways, I wish I had some photos of that, but certain people don't let certain photos from their certain cameras into the hands of ANYONE else, so we will never see just how rockin I was out there on the court. (Oh well, it honestly may be for the best.)

We also made these cute turkeys out of oreos and peanut butter cups, it was fun getting to see how creative we all got, there were pirate turkeys and zombie turkeys. Then it was even more fun getting to eat them later.

We spent a lot of time in with Lynnanne. It is always amazing just to be near her, she is such a beam of love and joy. We decided to brighten up her room a little by adding colorful snowflakes hanging from the ceiling. They were all so beautiful, who knew we had such great cutting skills?!?! Us Taylors really do know how to rock.

Taylor decided that his goal of the trip was to get as many photos of me taking naps--with my own phone! He got me at least 5 times. I would even fall asleep with my phone in my hand, and somehow not wake up to him taking the phone, taking the picture, uploading it to facebook, and then putting the phone back. Taylor is one sneaky individual, let me tell you! One day I will find a way to get him back... mark my words.

After getting to spend so much time together as a family, it was really sad when the week was over. That was the last time our whole family will be together for many years! But I am so excited and happy to say that I know our family will all be reunited before we know it, and get to spend a looooong time together after that. I'm glad we all came together, and once again, did what we do best-- BE THE MOST AMAZING FAMILY EVER!!
