Best Thanksgiving Ever!

Suzi has an early morning paper route that takes extra long on Thanksgiving Day (4 to 7 hours) because of extra ads, so the girls came up with a great plan. We got a motel (Comfort Suites) in Ogden that has a pool, a free breakfast, and is 17 minutes from Suzi's house. Gardners got a room, Jensens got a room, we got a room, and Alice's Mom got a room. Suzi and Trent did the paper route and caught a couple of hours of sleep at home while their kids slept on hide-a-beds in our room and Alice's Mom's room. We arrived at the motel Wednesday evening, played games, and had a devotional. Thursday, we had breakfast and swimming at the motel, had Thanksgiving dinner and a devotional at Suzi's house, then had games etc. at the motel. Friday morning we had breakfast at the motel, then departed for home. Suzi and Trent joined us for the Wednesday and Thursday night activities as well as everything at their house and the the Friday breakfast. I think everyone had a good time, but for Alice and I, it was the best Thanksgiving ever!
