Awesome Thanksgiving Break!

Okay, so Thanksgiving was pretty awesome for the Glover Family! We drove to Cali on Tuesday. Everyone in my family came. Holli even came from Idaho. This is pretty much what everyone looked like when we got there...


Ethan got off to a bad start. He came down with something that gave him an awful fever, and it caused his body to swell up. It was all over his back! So weird, I had never seen anything like it. And it scared me to death!

His temperature rapidly rose to 104.3%,
so we were off to the ER.
Anyway, he felt better quickly and we still celebrated
Kaylee & Gracie's B-day's
(Kaylee will be 12 Nov. 29th & Gracie will be 2 Dec. 4th)






Gracie got DORA everything!















Everyone celebrated, even Uncle Mike!

SkyMAN couldn't stay off the phone with the ladies...
watch out girls, he's single!


What's the best thing about Thanksgiving morning?
(besides the parade & the family soccer game)
DONUTS!

My little Noah Monster!

Holli & I were in charge of making the rolls

Which meant that I got out all of the ingredients and bossed Holli
around the kitchen...she did the dirty work!

Which was a bummer for her because she got dough all over her nice
Thanksgiving Day clothes!

Proof that Tressa has done a great job on TJ already!
He was actually in the kitchen cutting up onions for the stuffing!
(notice the perfect rolls on the counter)
The kids had a blast in the Jumping Castle!
And by the way, the weather was awesomely perfect!




Things started getting a little rough!











All worn out!

The next day, we all went to the beach


Lilly Dodd...So COOL!
(Nancy & Martin's 4 yr. old daughter)






Scottie BUM!

Had some Football & Soccer games going!

Dunder Mifflin...our favorite paper company!
(Who's going crazy now that they are showing re-runs?)

Daddy's Princess








This was so funny because Ryal kept trying
to catch the birds, but he never even got close!
He said, "What?", but he was thinking, "I'm too sexy for this beach!"

My youngest brother Brock

Nancy Dodd-6 months pregnant
(my mom's sister)
Cousins
Kaylee & Haley
(Nancy & Martin's 13 yr. old daughter)

This is Gracie running in the water,
just before she fell flat on her face!


This is Gracie still running right after she
fell flat on her face!








And the BEST part of our vacation was
taking Kaylee to see WICKED for her B-day!
It was absolutely incredible!!!
We had so much fun!
Chase & Tricia went too, but in a separate car.
They toured Hollywood for awhile.






We saw a walking Tiger on stilts...so cool!


So, that was our trip! So fun! We went to the mall and shopped, we got pedicures, we stayed up late and played card games, and ate lots of food! So now I am 5 lbs. heavier then I was when I left, (which is kind of a bummer because the goal right now is to lose lbs.), Ethan, Noah & Gracie are all very sick, can't keep their fevers down, my house is a mess, and I have about 20 loads of laundry to do.

Lots of packing + lots of fun = lots to do when you get home!

But this Thanksgiving, I was most thankful to spend time with all of my family.

I love all of you! Thanks for a great vacation!!!

I just checked and my pictures come up for me...weird!
I got the sweatshirts on ebay, they have all kinds of fun clothing from the OFFICE.
Ethan is still sick. Just took him to the DR today. Him & Noah both. It's weird because it's on again off again. Worried that Noah's may be turning into pneumonia. He has X-rays scheduled for tomorrow.

It looks like you had a lot of fun - minus the sick kids. I'm sorry about that - it is NO fun!

I love the Dunder Mifflin hoodies - I am going on Office withdrawal - and it stinks. Stupid Strike!

wicked is probably my favorite of all the shows i've seen. just wonderufl staging/music/dancing/clever lyrics/plot twists/all around amazingness. glad kaylee got to see it. sorry, however, about all your sick kiddos, and the fact that i still haven't picked up my crusty crockpot.

correction: wonderFUL.

Great post Jheri. You kids look like tons of fun, and so does Scott. What a fun dad. Isn't that typical that your kids get sick on the trip. I hope I get to go see Wicked one day. All I hear is how wonderful it was. Oh by the way I tagged you. Go see my blog.

All the photos look great but I'll tell you what, that picture of the 'scottie bum' sure looks like that's his best side.
