My sister Brooke met an Aussie online, and became engaged this Summer. So, that means she and her two daughters were moving to Australia. We were all VERY happy for Brooke, but she had some sad things to deal with, and so did we. One sad thing is that she will be gone for all the Holiday's. Christmas isn't as big a deal because Aussie's celebrate Christmas. But Thanksgiving was another story. So, to help her out, we decided to have a mini Thanksgiving and it took on the name Autumn Festivus. Grandma and Grandpa Mott (my mom's parents) came up from Utah, and Paige flew up as well.

Long Festivus table filled with food.
Another reason for Autumn Festivus was to treat Mick, Brooke's fiance, to a real American Thanksgiving. It was all new to him and super fun!
DESSERT!!!! The most important part of Thanksgiving dinner.
We invited Paige's in-laws over for festivus as well, since they are pretty much family, and we've known them forever, and they live around the corner.
Bennett being stuffed. He really liked the squash.
Bennett ate too much!!! (So did some other people.)
Harrison's first day of Pre-School. He is super excited and happy.
Paige and the dog running errands with me. I had SO much fun with her in town. I miss her too much!
Harrison made this cute spider hat at school.
