Gobbling All Over Idaho

Gregg and I had a week off for Thanksgiving this year and thank goodness we did because it took that long just to get anywhere with the horrible snow storms.  It seemed we had snow day after snow day, but the plus side was Emme stayed right on schedule because we weren't running around like usual.  The night of Thanksgiving she slept 8hrs for the first time.  Ever since she's been sleeping 7-8hrs.  That makes a happy mom and dad.

She refused to take her usual naps with all the festivities of the holiday going on.  So finally she passed out on me.
I had to put this on here just to spite Quinn. 
After a full day of traveling through snow we finally made it to Grandpa and Grandma's house.  Emme needed a bath so we stripped her down.  I was more concerned with getting her into the water before she peed on the floor, than I was to remember to take her socks off.  Gregg thought it was hilarious.
We watched the BYUvs.Utah game while we were there.  Yea for Utah!

Although Adoption Month is over, we will be thankful for adoption forever.  What an amazing experience.  Through it, we proved to ourselves that we are strong.  It also showed us we are weak without the Lord's help. 

A highlight of the trip was seeing this girl....without her, there wouldn't be an us. 
So cute how snuggled they are in this picture.

Looks like a fun Thanksgiving! I'm loving the socks story, love Emme's chin on your shoulder and LOVE the picture of Emme with "M". Its like I can't stop staring at it. Just like you said, if it weren't for her, there wouldn't be an us.
