Christmas Lights

Earlier this month we enjoyed a night out on the town with the the Clift Clan. We went to dinner downtown with my Dad and Mom and all of my sisters and finished the night off with a visit to Temple Square to see the Christmas lights. We had a great time with the family and it is always fun to go see all of the beautiful lights they have downtown!

THANKSGIVING

We had a great Thanksgiving this year filled with lots of food, family and fun! We are fortunate enough to have both sides close by and we are able to make it to both sides family dinners.

The day started out with Jake getting home from an all-nighter at the hospital for his surgery rotation. He didn't get any sleep and I wouldn't let him take a quick nap because we were supposed to leave for our first event within a couple of hours.

We rode out to Brigham City with Jake's brother Jon and his wife and kids for our first dinner with all of the Coopers (Jake's mom's side of the family). The dinner was amazing, everyone brought really yummy dishes. There was a great fruit Turkey made by Jake's Aunt Caryn and one of my favorite sides were the candied yams...delicious! We were able to fit in some time to make some fun gingerbread houses and play some basketball before we had to get going to our next event of the day.

Almost immediately after we got home from the fun Cooper Thanksgiving we headed over to my parents house to have our Clift family Thanksgiving. All of my sisters and their fellas were there. We had another yummy dinner with a few of our favorite traditional sides,like Grandpa Herzog's hot tomato drink. A little while after dinner my mom's sister and her family came for pie. We had a great time catching up with the Fords and eating delicious pie. Aunt Becky's pecan pie was wonderful and all of the others looked great too.
