Thanksgiving Weekend 2010

The weekend started out with a 5k run out in Draper on Thanksgiving morning. It was Mom's first race ever, and it was my dad's first race since his open heart surgery in April. My dad had a little trouble getting dressed for the event, as you can see, but other than that they both killed it!
It was only 9 degrees outside on Thursday morning, so we had to dress as warm as possible. We ran with handkerchiefs around our faces because the air was too cold to breath. I literally had an icicle in my hair when the race was finished!
Thursday afternoon the Jamie Bricco family rolled into town. Oh my gosh! Laying down with a sleeping baby is the best thing in the world! I swear I could sniff Keira's head all day long. I was so glad to meet her finally. She is so sweet and has the cutest laugh and smile!
Thaiya gets more beautiful every time I see her! Bradlee was SOOO glad to have Thaiya for the weekend. She had been talking about it for weeks. Thaiya was a super good sport and spent lots of time doing things with Bradlee. Bradlee cried for about two hours when they left because she wanted to go home with "her" Thaiya.
I think it is awesome that Jaiden and Thaiya are so close with their grandparents. It is pretty special.
Look at the smile on that baby! Bradlee is looking a little rugged in this picture, but I just had to post this picture of Keira!
Tyler and Jamie...REPRESENT!
Did I mention that they are pretty close? Those two are constantly trying to spoon with each other.
Brock loved having some boys to play with. Jaiden is really good with the kids and they all love him. Brock and Jetrin only got in a couple of "altercations". Other than that, they had a really good time together. We could never get a picture of them because they never stayed still...ever.
Saturday morning, Bradlee woke up and clearly had a UTI. Tyler was a good sport and took her to urgent care. I don't think he knew he was going to have to spend 3 hours there holding a cup to try and collect a urine sample from her. Bradlee refused to cooperate for the longest time, and Tyler tried to bribe her with a pink balloon, but Bradlee drives a hard bargain. She wasn't going to do it for any less than FOUR pink balloons.
SOOO HOTT!
Princess Keira
We had lots of good food over the weekend. Some of us went to see Harry Potter, and some of us went to see Tangled. We played some games, and just had a lot of fun hanging out together.

Poor Bradlee (and Tyler)!

It looks like you guys had a fun weekend otherwise, and we definitely would have loved being there with you.
