Thanksgiving was splendid with everyone helping to provide a bountiful feast. The crowd was relatively small with just our family minus the Youngs, who remained in Arizona. After dinner there were several rounds of Bananagrams and that evening the whole family went to see The Muppets. Overall it reviewed well.
The day after Thanksgiving, Rob had to leave for Saturday work in Reno. Prior to his departure, we went to the Museum of Art for a photo session and a quick tour of the current exhibits. That evening everyone gathered here for hamburgers. Afterward, several attended a showing of Hugo, which they liked very much but were quite sure it was not a kids' movie.
Yesterday, the girls all went to SLC to the newly-opened H&M store and the boys went for an exhilarating hike to the Y and Eagle Pass, beyond. Rod and Vic dropped in with Carrie, Grant, and Tom for a great visit. The Ensigns returned from visiting their cousins and we all met at Max's favorite restaurant, Dickie's, for some pretty good barbeque.
There were many good walks, including this oneThanksgiving morning

It looks fantastic, as always. I do love a good Taylor Thanksgiving. Do we think Kris's rolls would surviving a mailing?
So nice you could have so many home for the holiday.
I believe you meant we headed back to "the greater Tahoe region" not NV. It was great to be there. Wish we could travel by map and be there whenever we darn well pleased.
Looks like a fantastic kick off to the High Dickie Days! I too wish "travel by map" was possible so wee could be part of the goings on!
It was a really great Thanksgiving, and I'm just so thankful that I didn't have to spend it at the hospital! Thanks to everyone who provided the delicious food and the excellent company. I don't really know what's going on with Tucker in the photo with him in the living room, but I sure did LOL.
