Adam started off the month with the annual hike to Four peaks with the ward young men. This year’s hike was a bit different because it snowed that weekend and it was too cold and snowy to hike to the peak like they usually do. So, they ended up hiking to the amethyst mine instead and had a wonderful time.
The following weekend, we went to Mesa for Graeden and Tiffani’s wedding. The day before the wedding, Adam went on a fun buggy ride to sycamore creek.
I enjoyed helping Tiffani and Heather with the wedding flowers. Adam provided great comic relief while we worked.
He even tried his hand at floral design. We think he should stick to construction work.
We wish Graeden and Tiffani all the best as they begin their life together.
Now that Eliza is no longer at Basic training, she has a lot more privileges. The best one is getting more phone time! Getting to FaceTime chat with all three of the kids on Caleb’s P-day is the best!! I’m so grateful for technology that gives us these opportunities.
Speaking of Being Thankful,
Thanksgiving this year was very different for Adam and I. With none of our kids home, we felt a little sad. We did have a wonderful feast with most of the Quist Family at the Hulse’s home. We enjoyed eating and visiting and playing games together. Each of the kids were able to call, including Elder Gurr, so it ended up being a nice day after all.
Eliza did a 7mile run on Veterans Day with some of her friends at Ft. Sam.
She enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner with some of the branch members. It was hosted by the Peterson’s. The Peterson’s are military relations missionaries on the base and have been so kind to our Eliza.
Sarah is still loving life at BYUI
She was able to take a picture of the first rime the tro talked together since they all left!
She went in a trip with her roommates to Cambri’s house for a weekend and loved it! 
She even did a little horse back riding.
She loved spending Thanksgiving weekend with Aunt Mally. It was awesome, they had thanksgiving with Aunt Lynn and Uncle Bill, went and saw aunt Thayle, and then spent time with Nathaniel and Kristine and their kids.
Elder Gurr loves being in a biking area and is having great time working and serving with Elder Vowell.
Elder Gurr and Elder Vowell enjoyed their Thanksgiving feast with the Miller family. (Elder Gurr is not the best at sending photos. This picture was taken and sent to me by Sister Miller)
We love seeing Elder Gurr so happy!
Although we are apart, We all have so many blessings to be thankful for!
