Sun Valley-Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful time in Sun Valley for Thanksgiving! It was so much fun being together with family! Thanks Slatter's for a great weekend!

The kids had a competitive game of bowling at the famous Sun Valley Lodge!





The bowling ally was very old school. Papa and Jace were the official score keepers

This was one of our few Thanksgivings that we have not hosted. Jason and I have cooked many Thanksgiving dinners. It was great to sit back and let someone else to the cooking! I think we had 35 for dinner!




We took the kids sledding too. It was freezing, but they had a great time!





We tried to take some family photos but most of the kids were not very cooperative.





Here we are trying to get a Family picture....
again and again.......
and again.......
Grandma & Papa with all the grand kids.....
We took a sleigh ride with the little ones....they loved the horse drawn sleigh ride.




Santa came downtown. We brought the little girls to sit on Santa's lap.


Our favorite activity was going ice skating. All the kids had fun skating. I remembered all my old tricks too.







What would a fun day skating be without a Slatter dare? Zach earned himself $20.00 bucks for skating around the rink without his shirt on!

We can't wait to go to SunValley again. It is such a great place to shop and play. We had a great weekend together as a family!

Well it's about time!! Thank goodness for another update on the Slatter family. This looks like such a fun time with all of your family! I have never been ice skating before! I guess that is what you get when you grow up in the mountains and not in Ohio. I LOVE the Slatter dares...I think he should have gotten more than 20...Dylan got 100 for going in the water....We miss you guys sooo much. I am looking forward to the next installment of the Slatter Saga Stories.
