I'll be home for Thanksgiving...

This was my first Thanksgiving where I was not at my grandparents, stuffing my face with the traditional.

Mike grew up in Minnesota, and one of his closest friends is Paul. Paul's family have since moved up to Idaho, while Paul is down in Provo attending BYU. 
Paul invited us to go up with him to Idaho to spend Thanksgiving with his family this year.

We drove up early Wednesday morning. When I say "we" drove... I meant that Mike drove. What a trooper. He drove every mile, BOTH ways. If any of you know me very well, my heart is full of gratitude for this act of kindness on Mike's end. I absolutely HATE to drive, and will avoid it as much as possible. 

It was so wonderful to share Thanksgiving with his family. They were so welcoming and made us feel as though we were home for Thanksgiving.
The food was absolutely perfect, the company was great, and we even had entertainment! (Paul's family does a talent show each year, and this family is TALENTED!)
