Thanksgiving 2009


The Udall's have started a tradition. For the past 3 years we have gone to Niki and Carson's house for Thanksgiving. It is just our family, Steve, Bonnie, Niki, Carson and sweet little Brighton. It is nice because there aren't too many of us so we just hang out, eat lots of good food, and plan our shopping for black Friday! This year was extra fun because Niki had her baby a week before Thanksgiving so it was so much fun loving on him. It has been a while since we have had a baby around on the Udall side. It is also fun seeing Niki as a mom. She is such a natural. She makes first time motherhood look easy!
Friday morning Bonnie and I woke up early and ventured out into the craziest of crazy's on black Friday. We had a good time and actually ended up getting everything we wanted and more. After we were done shopping we got some breakfast and then headed home for a nap. It was a fun time and I am glad Bonnie is brave enough to face the madness with me.
This is after we ate, can you tell? Everyone looks miserable!

Carson was laying on the couch with the baby and Thatcher went over and layed down as well and propped his feet up just like Uncle Carson.


These kids are out of control!
