This will be the last "grandma sponsored" Thanksgiving which means that Grandma will no longer be doing all the planning and all the cooking. We really have a great Thanksgiving tradition with the whole Ross gang. Our family is so huge that we have to do it at a church house which makes it a blast. We play volleyball, dodge ball and we spend a lot of time just visiting. I am so grateful for my huge family and I love having an excuse to be with all of them at least once a year.

**COOKIE HEAVEN**

YUMO!!! Cookie Dough



Tanner loves to make Chocolate Chip cookies. He has the recipe memorized and he makes the chocolatie goodness at least twice a week. He even comes home from school during his lunch and makes cookies. But mostly he just likes the dough.

{Bear Lake or Bust}





























I am posting this a little out of order, but here goes.
{Bear Lake was a blast}
Even if the weather was cool and the water was freezing.
We borrowed Grandpa Nielson's four wheeler. The boys really enjoyed riding all over the beach and through the water. McKay said that it was more fun the riding jet ski's in the water. I told him that depended on how hard the fall would be. Hum... falling in the water or in the dirt. He was still convinced that four wheeling was more fun. Tanner biffed it twice and he definately thought water is softer. This was a very needed and super relaxing vacation. We also spent a lot of time playing Guitar Hero, board games, watching movies and of course eating.
