Thanksgiving and Elder Holland

Well, hopefully everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We had a great one here in wonderful St. George. Everyone came to us this year and it was really nice. We gained some pounds, welcomed obesity for the weekend, we spent more than we should have, sat and gabbed about this and that, and wrestled tired kids. It was how the holidays should be spent. "Black Friday" was welcomed here in the Mogle house with the annual shopping trip starting a little late this year at 4:30. The list going into "Black Friday" was relatively short this year but ended up bigger than it should have.

Friday evening we had to go out to eat, if you cook Thanksgiving meal then you HAVE to go out on Friday. I think it's in the Constitution! So we went to Chuck-A-Rama. Yes we go fancy when we go. Well, while we were there we saw Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorom of the 12! We had seen him about a year and a half ago at Ace Hardware in Heber City, but we never said hello to him or anything. So this time we had to. As he, Elder Holland, was following the waitress to his seat, Connor was running away from us and ran into his legs. Shortly after that we got to say hello. It was pretty cool, both boys have met and touched an apostle. So apparently Ace Hardware and Chuck-A-Rama are good spots to hang out if you want to see an apostle.

Well here is a lil' video of some Thanksgiving pics and other pics from the past week or two. Enjoy at our expense.

Oh my, you have the cutest kids on the planet. Just the pictures of them make me smile! And if you could get an award for "best blog" you for sure would win! It's so fun to see. Hey Tara, want to do to lunch on Thursday at noon at the deli? I know it's far, but hey it would be worth it! The deli is our new thing. Omar and Julie Aragon opened it right next to the Asian place out here. It's yummy.
