After our fabulous trip to Disneyland (see below), we all drove to LA where we spent the next couple of days. On Thanksgiving Day Taylor spent a large part of the morning cooking for our big feast. While the turkey was cooking we went on a drive to Malibu and walked along a beautiful beach. When we returned to the apartment we were overtaken by the wonderful aroma of a well prepared Thanksgiving meal. After a little team work in the kitchen we were able to eat a nice quiet meal since the littlest of the three kiddies were both sleeping! We were all thankful for that. It was a great meal that included Moms stuffing and gravy and Kayce's sweet potato soufflé. Brad and I are very grateful for all of our blessings this Thanksgiving. We are so thankful for the time we have had here in Southern California; for Brad's work opportunity and to be close to Taylor, Kayce and Axel for a few months. Brad and I are so very blessed with a great family, a good job and the gospel.
(sorry but we all forgot to take pictures on thanksgiving!)
Friday we went to the La Brea Tar pits near Taylor and Kayce's house. Ayden enjoyed seeing all of the extinct animal remains that have been preserved in these unique tar pits for a long time. After the tar pits visit we drove around Beverly Hills and looked at all the ostentatious houses and of course did some people watching. We even saw one of the Olsen twins (don't ask me which one) trying to drive through all of the paparazzi out of a parking lot and she pulled out right next to us. In the evening we went to Rodeo Drive and walked around all of the shops we can't afford to even walk in. The only notable thing from the evening is walking by Hilary Swank and going to the famous Sprinkles cupcake shop. We got some good star sightings for only being in LA two days!
