Christmas Boat Parade

The last one was across the lake but it was a train!  We loved watching the boat parade and can't wait to go again next year.  MERRY CHRISTMAS!

O Christmas Tree

Thanksgiving

We drove through Zion's on our way to Thankgiving.  

This checkerboard mesa was really cool!

 The beginning of the 1.1 mile tunnel.

 It was pretty dark...but really neat!

 Those cliffs hide the tunnel we just went through!

 Nothin' better than a Louis L'Amour

 Our cutie new niece, Cambria

 

 Chris was really good at calming her down...especially when she wanted to sleep and was supposed to stay awake!

 I think this signifies a successful vacation!!

More drying

Apples for my snacking delight and celery for my soup love.

Lovin' my dehydrator!

What's Drier Than Phoenix?

My dehydrator!  

Yesterday I made dried bananas and banana fruit leather.  

YUM!!!

Season of Thanksgiving

Let's not skip right to Christmas, k?  All the stores went right from Halloween to Christmas decor.  So Chris and I searched the discounted fall items at the store and came up with our own "Thanksgiving"/fall decor.  A bare stick wreath, fall leaves, and a Welcome plate make up our new Thanksgiving wreath.  

Happy Thanksgiving!
