Grandpa and his great-grandchildren in attendence, but I guess Marki was not happy about it. Tammy and I snuck in so our sleepy kids could be in the photo, too. :)
Brit and me. She is so darling!
My two "Utah" brothers, Mark and Paul. We missed Brandon and Joe and their families. And Mom, who was visiting the "Georgia" bros.
Brittany, Heidi, and Lisa...such cute girls!
Every year, the Saturday or two before Thanksgiving, my extended Bunker family gets together for dinner. There are so many of us married that we couldn't all get together on Thanksgiving so my Grandpa brilliantly moved the party. It is always so fun to see many of my cousins that I don't see too often. And now we get to see each other's kids grow so much from year to year.
I'm really sad that I didn't get photos of the adults, but I got so busy with the kids, saying hi to everyone, and making sure things were okay with the food for Chris. But we had a great time and the food was awesome!!! Thanks Chris for all your hard work. And thanks to Paul and Heidi for hosting and orchestrating everything. It was a great party!
The little kid's table. It just happened this way...Brady sat down first, then Richard, then Bo, then Marki, and I had to put Hannah with them. None of them stayed for long, as they had much havoc to raise. It's so time consuming to be a kid.
Elise the cookie snatcher. Hannah and Elise are the same age and bonded quickly. We saw her and her family during the summer, but not since. They didn't talk to each other with words, but smiled and giggled together. I love how many cookies she grabbed. We took her to her mom's table to share the cookies with her family. :)
Hannah was so shy all day. She only got about a 20-30 minute nap in the car on the way down so she was tired and a little overwhelmed with all the new faces.
This is the buffet Chris provided for us. It was wonderful and I think everyone wants him to cater each year now. We'll see. :)
Paul and Heidi had each of us write a letter to Grandpa thanking him for all he has done for each of us in our lives. He is so supportive, and if it weren't for he and Grandma, none of us would be her together. Here is the "letter box" Heidi delivered to him at the end of the meal.
We all had a wonderful time. I am thankful for all of my family. For the love and support we have for each other. And that we are able to see each other at least once every year.
