Thanksgiving in LA













We went to Las Angelos for Thanksgiving to visit Gus's sister Laura and her husband Trent. had a great time hanging out with them and visiting about their upcoming baby. One of our favorite memories is going to the fruit market. They had tasties and a lot of different fruit. We loved it! Rachel had her first orange and may never be able to eat Utah oranges again because of the love the the CA oranges.

We also enjoy a couple of movies, we watch Princess and the frog and one more (That in the early morning I can't remember)

Laura and Trent also introduced us to one of their favorite Italian restaurants. We have decided that it is one of our favorites also. Ever since Lance and Megan moved from UT I have craved a good Italian meal. So this was perfect for us!

On Thanksgiving morning, we went to the beach and introduced Rachel to the ocean for the first time. She loved the sand and being by the water. She liked looking at the water but was not fond of how cold the water was. After putting her feet into the ocean she was done with being at the beach.

Thanksgiving dinner was delicious! Laura really did a nice job putting everything together. We had turkey, stuffing, squash with cinnamon and nutmeg, rolls, cranberry sauce, strawberry / rhubarb pie and a sparkling pomegranate drink. Everything was delicious and the only problem was that are stomachs got full faster then the food was gone. We also feel in love with Mochi - which is a Japanese ice cream treat. We tried Mango, Strawberry, Chocolate, and Vanilla and to be honest, I am still not sure which one is my favorite!

It was so fun to have a warm CA Thanksgiving! We are definitely going to have to do it again.
