Thanksgiving Dinner at Grandma Jeppson's

This year for Thanksgiving all of the Jeppson's were here.  It has been since I was pregnant with Eric that all the siblings and spouses were here.  I was so excited to see everyone.  And so glad that Samuel came to join us and meet everyone as well.

Left to Right: Eric, Grandpa with Addie, Grandma with Samuel, Rubie, Koen, Jaxon.  Front: Heidi, Meja.
It was fun for Eric and Rubie to get to know their Jeppson cousins and Aunts and Uncles better.  All the little girls believe that Aunt Chantel is a princess.  And Eric is certain that Uncle Emmanuel is a Power Ranger.  Apparently he looks like one of the actors that plays a power ranger and Emmanuel practices Jujitsu--so he's got moves.

We had a day at the City Creek Center together, Thanksgiving Day at Mom and Dad's and at a church in Draper to spend time with the Perry cousins, and then the next day just hanging out at Mom and Dad's.  It was very nice, I enjoyed it a lot and wish it could happen more often.

Samuel's Photo Shoot

On November 16th, when Samuel was just two weeks old, my cousin Nikki, a talented photographer came over to shoot some photos of Samuel.  She does well and has a business set up as Sweet Lilac Photography.  I love these pictures of Samuel.
