Henderson, Nevada
November 23-27, 2011
We made the trip for the second year in a row to Henderson, NV for Thanksgiving to be with the Fryers! It was a little crazy for me to go since Kobe was just 3 1/2 weeks old and I was running on little sleep, but everyone had a fun time! We did lots of fun things such a seeing the new Disney Muppet Movie, hiking, Mark got to go out and shoot some really cool guns and we ate lots and lots of yummy food. Thank you to Laura & Michael, Lisa & Jon, and Sharon & Brent for everything! Here is the details and pictures of the rest of the fun times we had during Thanksgiving!
Mark's parents bought a beautiful home and moved from St. George, Utah to Henderson where Mark's two sisters and their families live! We all had a good laugh at Grandpa Brent's new computer desk! LOL!
Aunt Laura (Mark's sister) holding cousin Mary (Lisa & Jon's daughter) and Grandma Sharon holding Kobe! Mary was born on October, 20, 2011!
Kisses for Kobe from Grandma Sharon!
Keira, Ezra and Nash! Playtime with the cousins!
Carson and Kobe!
Cousin Ezra and Cayden!
Keira always has fun playing with cousin Ezra and his two dogs! Aunt Lisa always offers to send the dogs home with Keira! LOL!
Thanksgiving day I dressed Kobe up as a little Turkey! We are so grateful for our 10 pound 6 ounce turkey (that is what he weighed before we left for our Thanksgiving trip)!
Kobe's First Thanksgiving!

Before the feast a bunch of the Fryers headed over to Discovery Park to play and talk!
We held the annual Fryer Family Turkey Soccer Game! You can always count on Mark's brother Jordan to keep thing crazy and fun!
Burning lots of calories before the big feast!

Skinny butt Mark lost his pants quite a few times and Jordan thought it was quite funny as we all did! LOL!

The beautufil set up before the feast! Mark's sister Laura always decorates the tables so nice! We are thankful that they have a nice size house to fit all of us Fryers and are always so willing to do so!
Isn't it lovely?!

We went to the Ethel M Chocolate Factory and Botanical Cactus Gardens to see the awesome Christmas lights. We always enjoy a free piece of chocolate after the factory tour! The place was packed!
On Sunday before we headed back to Arizona we attended the baby blessing of Mary! Mark stood in the circle! Mary's dad took this picture of Mary in her beautiful baby blessing dress that Grandma Sharon made for her! Mary is such a little doll!
