The Best Kind of Busy

Last weekend was just busy.  Whew!  It felt like we were racing from one great family experience to another!  But what sweet memories we are enjoying this week as a result.  I've posted my best photos on Facebook, and some not so good but when the only picture you get of someone or ones is a little out of focus, you've still just gotta post it.  So go to the links from Facebook to see the rest of my photos from these events.

Thursday, November 25, 2010,  Thanksgiving Dinner with Mike and Makinzee's Family:

Thanksgiving Turkey - Brent, Makinzee, and Mike in their beautiful new kitchen.  We had a great time enjoying Thanksgiving with Mike and Makinzee, Tonya and Brian, and Heather and Isaac.

Saturday, Nov. 27 - Rick's Endowments
Saturday morning, Rick received his endowments at the Mt. Timpanogos Temple in American Fork, Utah.  We appreciated the invitation to join the family for this very special occasion.  Rick is going on a mission to Anaheim, his favorite place on earth.  The red and black color scheme, they said, was to show solidarity for Micky Mouse (actually, for the mission which has Micky Mouse's home in it), not University of Utah (who beat BYU in their final rivalry game later that day).


The Loveridge group:  L-R  Mark, Kathy, Asa Wright, Amy Wright, Rick, Leo and Edna, Brad, Jill, Brent and me.  Bill and Stephanie came, too, but they had to leave before pictures.  What else can you do when you leave the session and find not one, not two, but three urgent messages from the babysitter's mother??????

Saturday Afternoon, Leo and Edna's 65th Anniversary Dinner at Golden Corral, Orem, Utah

Stephanie and cupcake Karmyn - Yummy!  Sugar makes for a happy baby!

Yes, I did not wait for Mike and Makinzee to stop eating, clear their throats and smile.  Thought I was past that, but apparently not.  Sorry guys.  I was focusing on the kids in front.  Counterclockwise:  Maddy, Jack, Lexi, Kamryn, Mike, Makinzee.

Not sure what they were visiting about but I have about a dozen shots of them talking.  I think I was trying to get Bill's face.  Never did.   L-R  Dad, Mike, Bill

Eating is one of the things I do best and often! The pictures are great, I didn't take any of either event.

So many fun things to celebrate and be thankful for this season. How funny that Mark and Kathy's gang even brought Mickey to the temple. How will Kathy stay away from Anaheim for two years with two of her favorite things on earth there?

My guess is she won't. The big question is whether or not she'll only see one of her two favorite things while there.
