So this has been a week of travel and celebration for our family. We traveled to Utah to spend time with the family this week for Thanksgiving and had a great trip. We left last Friday morning and drove Friday and Saturday to get to Utah. We spent the week dividing our time between our families and having a grand ol’ time! Here are some photos from our trip.

We decided to go the long way around through Fort Stockton instead of trying to go through Lubbock in an ice storm.](https://i0.wp.com/adamandsarah.arnesenfamily.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/12-Crazy-snow-on-our-way-out-of-Santa-Rosa.jpg?resize=720%2C540)
