We had plans to stay here in Albuquerque for Thanksgiving this year, but at the last minute, decided to make the 20-hour round trip drive to Utah to spend the weekend with the Bells. We celebrated with the extended family at a local church building and it was so much fun. The Bells are such a warm, welcoming bunch, not to mention REALLY good cooks- everything was to die for and I've still been dreaming about a few dishes... The whole weekend was really relaxing and nice and included dinner at Red Iguana, bonfire hot dogs and s'mores, BYU vs. Utah football, Belle's birthday party, lots and lots of shmoozing, and of course, some shopping. I also went down to Provo to spend part of a day with my sisters, Julie and Jennefer.
Christian's Mom, JoLynn, had these three little monkeys "help" her make muffins.
JoLynn took Oliver on her walks every day. He loves his Grandma Bell.
Amelia having some bonding time with her cousin, Molly.
Belle celebrated her 2nd Birthday- she's such a cutie!
Here are almost all the cousins decorating cookies at Belle's bash.

I am glad you guys had a good time even though we missed you in ABQ! Hopefully it won't be too long until the next time we see you:)
Who does Amelia get her chunky genes from? I can't figure it out!
From this guy, Jessica.

Rebecca,
So is her name Belle Bell? :) Looks like fun!
Looks like a great time! I love getting together with family.
Also, we are coming to Abq the 20th thru the 24th, are you guys going to be in town or you ditching out again? :)
Great to have you, Reba. You are such good company, cleaning up after Chris like you do. It was a great time. We miss you so much!!!
