Well it is the last day of November and what a whirlwind it has been! It seems like just yesterday it was Halloween and now we're on our way to Christmas.Roxa's brother Raulon got home earlier in the month from his mission in Independence , Missouri.
In this picture we are all waiting and swapping stories and thinking how hungry we were (we had a buffet planned for after).
Raulon's HOME! Roxa and Mason get in line to give welcome hugs!
Below, we enjoy the moment and re-aquint before heading off to lunch.
We all went to Oakley to his report in our old ward (when we all lived close to each other in the country we were in the same ward), it was nice to see everyone.
In November we also enjoyed visiting family in Utah a couple of time this month. Matt really liked watching the BYU - Utah football game. He went over to some friends in Oakley and was the only Ute fan amongst 30 Y fans. There were a few that asked to put on his Utah coat by the end of the game (the U beat them pretty soundly). It was fun, especially to see old friends and of course to see the Utes win.
Thanksgiving was a lot of fun. We had it with Roxa's family and we had great food and a ton of excellent pies. Matt and those who wanted went and had the semi-annual clay-pigeon shoot. The weather was beautiful for this time of year; not cold and not windy so they had a lot of fun.
We are looking forward to the holidays and the chance to spend more time with family!
