Amanda Wisner came up from BYU on Wednesday to be with Mom for the weekend. She came to our house with Mom when they brought Lilli home. Lilli had gone to Grandma's to help her clean the house for Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving day was family, food, and football. It was a wonderful day. We had us, of course, at the dinner along with Mom, Todd, Amanda, Jackie, Brad and Lorie, Brayden and Shantae and family, Nate and Abby and Nixon, Scott and Shauna. Dinner was so delicious. I sure wish I could put away more food like I could when I was younger. About three hours after dinner, I was still stuffed to the gills!
On Friday, we again went to Mom's. Games were played and movies watched. It was a fun day.
Saturday, some of the gang went to Preston to see the Festival of Lights. It started out with a fireworks display followed by a parade. It was fun. The weather was VERY mild for late November. Jessie showed on Saturday to join our gang.
BYU had a great sports day on Saturday. First off, the women's soccer team defeated South Carolina to move into the final four. Two more wins, and BYU is national champions. The men's basketball team whipped Utah in Salt Lake City, 75-64. Then to top off the day, the football team defeated USC 35-31. It was a good November for BYU--no team lost a game during the month. That includes women's volleyball, women's basketball, football, men's and women's basketball.
Today, we attended church here in Downey then went to Mom's for dinner. It was a nice way to wind up such a special weekend.
